Yo. If we're talking about "Hey I'd really love to have another speeding ticket" music, it's hard to beat Bullet the Blue Sky off of Joshua Tree.

True, however Edge's guitar has really gotten much better over time with that song. "Where the streets have no name" has to be my favorite followed by "Electrical Storm" and "The Fly".
Also, The Donnas are a good band if you like a chick rock group that talks about getting layed and doing drugs.

Hi,
Well, a couple of things. 1st, Billy Gibbons (guitarist) is a Car Nut and owns more than 30, including a couple Porsches.
Second, ZZ Top's music follows a long tradition of Driving Tunes starting with Chuck Berry's Maybeline and Hot Rod Lincoln, G.T.O. by Ronny & the Daytonas, Beach Boys with Little Duece Coupe, Jan & Dean's Little Old Lady from Pasadena, Hey Little Cobra by the Rip Chords, and on & on. Not about Porsche, about Driving!... 
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

How could I forget "Pet Sementary" and "Somebody Put Something in My Drink" by the Ramones. I'm sorry Joey...please forgive me. I had bad chicken this week. Also, "The Sex Pistols" and Janes Addiction...the list just keeps going and going.

rail you originally from chicago? I didn't think lucky boys branched out too much further...mild success in comparison to panic and fall out boy and the likes...nice call on the U2 tunes, however I will say you can catch a better version of just about any song off the Joshua tree on the Rattle and Hum the movie....
bullet, streets, sunday bloody sunday, bad, and especialy with or without you and exit are frickin insane! I know those aren't all tree tracks either.....
that said I caught the Vertigo tour twice and was let down both times...not sure why??? I was at the chicago shows they taped....ATYCLB tour was better.....Indoor Zoo TV leg was hands down the best....
hands down....dashboard confessional, great song.....

Super66, I am originally from Champaign so I caught a lot of these bands off the college scene. My buddies all went to Chicago after college so I spent a lot of time visiting them.
I saw the Vertigo tour this year in Dallas and was disappointed also. I really enjoyed the previous tour and the song selection was much better. Top Five U2 for me:
1.Streets
2. Bad
3. Electrical Storm
4. The Fly
5. Electric Co.
I'm 31, but still try to keep up with the music scene. Lucky Boys came out to El Paso...very surprising since they cancelled the Devo and Depeche Mode show because no one bought tickets (Jeff, take note if you like music).
I depart the Army in '08 and am really considering moving back to Chi-town. We'll see...I hope to be flying for one of the major airlines so I will be living wherever they send me. I also forgot Toad the Wet Sprocket...great band!

Got my ride with the Bose system. Thought for sure that some old school rap, maybe some 80's, or some Techno would be the best tunes to crank when not listening to the "Porsche Engine" mix...
I was wrong.
By far the most speeding is to be done with either Van Halen Hot for Teacher, or AC/DC Thunderstruck (although my wife says it reminds her of her Bachelorette party in Vegas...)
That said - top down has been reserved mostly for Ying Yang Twins or some good old Dre and Snoop.

Im still in the honeymoon period of owning my car, so its nothing but the motor for now!!! and loving it.
However.....Plan on burning a few new 'driving disks'
These will include tracks from...
U2
The Cult
Faith no more
Pearl Jam
Guns and Roses
Duran Duran
Bruce springsteen
Berlin
Bon Jovi
Blur
Radiohead
Hole
Fatboy Slim
INXS
Nirvana
Offspring
Simple Minds
The clash
The cure
Smashing Pumpkins
Heck, think I will have to grab some blank cd's
Any reconmendations on replacing the speakers in the dash. mine are very ordinary. I do notice an alpine amp under the hood matched up to the stock porsche head unit which is not much chop.
I dont have too much to spend on a new head unit so maybe some newer speakers?
Cheers,
Steven.

For all the lovers of "old school" rap. I'm not talkin JayZ, XM Radio has a station that I constantly listen to in the wifes car ( I think it is XM THE RHYME) that plays the old classics.
LL
Special Ed
Fat Boys
RUN-DMC
Big Daddy Kane
EPMD
Eric B and Rakim.......................
It totaly makes me smile, and laugh at myself
