The New Cars is a reunion of some of the original members of The Cars, with Todd Rundgren on vocals, replacing Ric Ocasek.
In 2006, with opening act Blondie, the band went on the “Road Rage Tour.” Due to a shoulder injury from a motor vehicle accident, Elliot Easton was forced to cease touring with the band in latter 2006. This resulted in the cancelation of the remaining tour dates during that period.
After his recovery, the band resumed touring in the first quarter of 2007, mostly playing casino venues.
They have released one album, a live recording entitled “It’s Alive”. The album is a live show featuring classic tracks by The Cars, followed by 3 brand new studio tracks.

Ric didn't want to participate, so the only other option was to replace Ocasek. All things considered, I'd rather hear The (New) Cars, with Rundgren, than not hear The Cars, at all. Outside of The New Cars, Rundgren's a top notch musician. I've got several of his solo records.

...seriously regret not taking a vicodin before seeing this clown try and pretend that he could sing the intelligent songs of Ric Ocasek.

Really kicked major ass. This was a great idea. Kasim handles Drive well, with respect to Ben. Recommended.
