Apologies if it's been mentioned but cannot believe no-one has not mentioned Madness:
I like driving in my car
It's not quite a Jaguar

From Morrissey's 'Teenage Dad On His Estate':


But still you look down on the teenage dad on
On his estate
He's happy so leave him alone
With his baby
And his modest home
He's happy so leave him alone
With his Jensen Interceptor
It's just a runaround


It's always seemed an incongruous choice of motor, especially as later in the lyrics it's revealed the Teenage Dad is on methadone.
But then modified Citroen Saxo doesn't scan as well, I suppose.

Wasn't Jamiroquai's Black Devil Car supposed to be about Jay Kay's Enzo?

Also, how about Gomez and 'Get Myself Arrested'...

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth
Gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW
Tryin'a get themselves arrested

Omc - How Bizarre,

Brother Pele's in the back, sweet Zina's in the front
Cruisin' down the freeway in the hot, hot sun
Suddenly red-blue lights flash us from behind
Loud voice booming, "Please step out onto the line"
Pele preaches words of comfort, Zina just hides her eyes
Policeman taps his shades, "Is that a Chevy '69?"

Tracy Chapman - Fast Car.

Big Brovaz - Favorite things

Buy me diamonds and rubies
I'm crazy bout Bentley's
Gucci dresses and dropped up compressors
Wine me and dine me
Bring those platinum rings
Those are a few of our favourite things
