Two of my personal favorites, in addition to anything by Wagner, Mahler & Strauss (no waltzes, tho) are:
Kraftwerk (especially Europe Endless & Trans Europe Express) and
the Eurythmics' Love is a Stranger In An Open Car

I agree with Jeph and the others that ZZ Top should only be played if your Boxster is equipped with a gun rack.



That being said, my Ipod does have a playlist reserved for high-speed or top-up driving so that others are not subjected to trashy but good driving music like:

Hungry Like the wolf - Duran Duran
Journey - Separate Ways
Take Me Home Tonight - Eddie Money


If any of you guys like trance, I'd categorize the following as good to drive to:

The Beach - ATB
Communication - Armin Van Buuren
Delerium - The Silence - Paul Oakenfold
Tell Me Why - Paul Van Dyk
Ready, Steady, Go - Paul Oakenfold


or non-trance:

It's No Good - Depeche Mode
Gangsta Party - Tu-Pac, Snoop Dogg (when you're driving in the 'hood')
She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult (your stereo had better be good)
Thunderstruck - ACDC
Where the Streets Have No Name - U2


If I had to drive to one CD for the rest of my life it would be Tranceport , mixed by Paul Oakenfold

Gotta go with U2. My wife tried to bring a Madonna cd into the car...she was properly chastised and schooled on what will and will not be played in the car. Anybody go to the U2 Vertigo concert this year? Didn't think it was as good as the last one.

I saw U2 this year. I thought it was a good show. Haven't seen any other U2 shows but they sound great live, unlike... (ahem) Counting Crows who can't seem to hit the right notes when I've seen them. Additionally, Bono really inspires me to vote.

Wink Who needs U-2 give me an ultralight

U-2 difficult plane to fly, great design by Kelly Johnson from Skunks work. Bono too full of himself with world politics an arena that he has no expertise. Nice to preach to forgive debt to 3rd world countries maybe he should sell his villas and jet plane for those countries.
