I think you'd have to put yourself in the mindset of some clueless 
70s music person: "OK, so there are guitars, and, like, the 
(sometime, in the Cars' case) singer doesn't have a conventionally 
'good' voice...."  Against the musical landscape of the late 70s, it 
might be enough.
And totally OT, for a window on the music industry landscape of the 
00s, take a long, ugly look at 
http://www.prosoundweb.com/recording/mm/week1/mm.php, the ongoing 
diary of a recording engineer on a major-label project.
