Drive was a huge hit.
You Might Think, too.
And the corresponding album.

The Cars had some good songs, but I wouldn't rank them as one of the greats by a long shot.
Saw them once in concert. (My girlfriend liked them). They had no stage presence, there was nothing dynamic in their presentation.
It was one of the most boring shows I've ever attended, neck-in-neck with ELO in 1976.

I agree, I saw them in 1982 at the first US Festival, they were like robots on stage.

Not to mention the mastermind Rik Okasek who sang on many tunes, and I'm pretty sure wrote a majority of all their songs - maybe even all of them?

Talking about making it big. Most band have a short span of success. Maybe 2-3 years. One or two hits and then they are off the radar. Very few bands survive more than a decade.
The Rolling Stones is an exception to the rule. Back to the question: If you want to make it big in Europe you can't decide not to tour here.
