From the back, moving forward:
Late 70's / early 80's Honda Accord
Late 70's / early 80's Volkswagen Golf (called a Rabbit in the U.S.)- (yellow)
'85-'87 Chevrolet Caprice
'84-'85 Oldsmobile
A yellow Mercury Capri (early '70's)
A white Ford Econoline truck, ca. 1965
An early '80's Chevrolet Astro Van
Another Honda, mid-eighties
The blue sports car is a 1977 Datsun 280 ZX
Can't ID the front vehicle - possibly a 1985 Oldsmobile
and, of course, the 1971 AMC Gremlin.

The Oldsmobile looks more like a 1977 Cutlass Supreme to me, and the minivan is a Ford Aerostar. As for the front vehicle, please consult the post directly above yours.

May be a '71, may be a '73
No difference. Most likely a '73 only because that was the highest production year before the '74 restyle.
And yes, '77 Olds

But it has the rub strip around the bumper.
Wouldn't that make it a '73? '70-'72 photos I have seen don't show one.
(Link to '73 Gremlin brochure describing the new bumper: Link to "www.oldcarbrochures.com")

This is most likely an in-joke by director Joe Dante, who directed the two "Gremlins" films. In the Chinatown prologue in the first "Gremlins" film, another Gremlin (also broken down) can be seen.

SD Joe wrote '85-'87 Chevrolet Caprice

That is 1986 Chevrolet Caprice.
