That's how I think of it too, but apparently it's a CR-90 Corellian Corvette. I imagine that info was created later and didn't exist for the first movie.

Oh there you go. It was definitely called a Blockade Runner in the micro-machines set from the 90s!

Makes most sense that blockade runner is a description of the role it's being used for, same way you can describe any car as a taxi if that's how you're using it.
