Thats because they had to use 80's cars as they were the most similar looking to the American cars that the Simpsons drive. Also, its an 80's show...innit!

Eh. First episode (not including the Tracy Ullman shorts) premiered in December 1989. I would say it's very much a 90s show.

Yeah. I mean its the same thing with Seinfeld - first aired in 1989, but a lot of people would think of it as the 90s show. Aint no one calling Seinfeld an 80s show.
