Hot Rod Lincoln-Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen

That song is overplayed, but damn if that isn't a sick car. A Model A with a Zephyr Flathead V12 would be amazing. I seem to recall a guy actually building one a few years backs and had it in Hot Rod Mag.

Haulass Hyena by the Cramps

I've never been sure if they meant the Lancia Hyena or if Hyena was the name of some hot rod.

Well said! For understandably personal reasons this is my favorite. \m/

@Brett Murphy I thought of the Cramps "Sado County Auto Show" but Bitchin Camaro by the Dead Milkman is just silly fun so I went with that.

"Fast Cars" by the Buzzcocks is another good one.

I was going to say Bitchin' Camaro (because I have one and love that song). Fast cars is good.

One of my favorite stoner-rock songs. Clutch in general makes great car references.

Clutch - Spacegrass 

A rap song with some very specific and knowledgeable lyrics 

Mac Dre - Chevys and Ford

Because everybody loves their Jeeps and

Paul Randy Mingo - Jeep Thing

And for those who feel a little differently about their car

Brian Setzer - Ignition

Maybe not directly about cars, but ZZ Top's I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide comes to mind.

Their song Crucial Velocity is especially vehicular.
