Saturday...because every time I get in, I feel like a kid waking up on Saturday morning.

Grimm. Black on black on black. License plate and all.

whateatsrabbits 08-22-2012 08:21 PM

I call it my "ferrari 360 modena that gets great gas mileage":bellyroll:

roddy 08-22-2012 09:33 PM

I call my Mustang Rodney (Dangerfield), 'cause it's red and gets no respect. I usually refer to the FR-S as the "little car", go-kart, or blue.

neutral 08-22-2012 09:39 PM

I don't name my cars because it makes forming an emotional attachment too easy.

My car's name is Takumi.

phoenix2150 08-22-2012 09:54 PM

Mini LFA, since this car is like a low power version of the LFA at a great price.

Propaganda 08-22-2012 10:11 PM

Allison. ...lol

and occasionally, lil lfa (similar to ^^)

elenien 08-22-2012 10:59 PM

I call mine a Night Fury (from the How to Train Your Dragon movie) :P

Thanntos 08-22-2012 11:10 PM

Bagheera from Jungle Book :P Because I've had two people tell me the front looks like a badass Panther

QFry 08-22-2012 11:22 PM

Malice...after a sexy performer :evil: i met in Portland once (for 3 months), due to them both being mean as hell to my wallet, fast enough to live with and not what everyone else is looking for.:thumbsup:

kramerica_industries 08-22-2012 11:24 PM

Francesca. Or, FRanceSca, as I like to spell.

Kwaziekeller 08-23-2012 08:50 AM

Argo... Argento... kinda obvious imo. Naming cars isn't usually something I do, I let others name it but all everyone kept saying was oh that's a "cute lil toy" (compared to my 500whp SRT8)... I'll be sure to remind them of that once I do a little work *cough* turbo *cough* and it's not so "cute" anymore lol.

MVJ1975 08-23-2012 08:53 AM

Yep. "Midnight".

Nevermore 08-23-2012 09:21 AM

I was thinking Vesuvius, after the volcano since the color is Hot Lava, but since everyone says all sports cars are female I'm thinking Helen, after Mt. Saint Helen.

Bonburner 08-23-2012 09:23 AM

jello86 08-23-2012 11:31 AM

:w00t:

I refer to my BRZ as "lil car" compared to the lifted Jeep Wrangler that shares its garage space. Sometimes I call it the Silica Subbie or the batwing (b/c of it's wing shaped mirrors).

CHOPPER 08-23-2012 02:23 PM

Name the mistress
 
For over 40 years ALL my cars were named shitbox (I was a biker).

Now I name my Argento after an old 250 c.c. snowmobile of mine, the model name was "Silver Bullet"

Olivia, in honor of my MK1 MR2 who was named after a certain Aussie singer that looks good in black leather.

My wife's '05 Red Mustang is "Reba" (Reba McEntire), our '04 Suburban is "Barbara Jean", my son's Accord is "Kyra" and my Honda 919 (sold to buy Olivia) was named "Cheyenne" (all women from the old TV Show "Reba")

enjoi23 08-23-2012 03:42 PM

I don't know what i will name mine, but it will be black, white, and purple..so maybe "venom" ..idk,a work in progress :)

dannyb 08-23-2012 03:46 PM

Black on Black. I call her Anne. After Anne Hathaway, of the Catwoman fame via TDKR. I was just going to call her the Batmobile, but Anne Hathaway was too sexy in that movie.

JSK 08-23-2012 05:58 PM

Well, I was driving around my nine year old sister one day and the song "Black Betty" came on. Instantly my sister says, "That's what you should name your car!" So my little sister got to name my first car... not sure if proud or angry?

(PS: I know my car is asphalt, not raven, but come on it's close enough)

driftartist 08-23-2012 06:02 PM

Shagaliscious 08-23-2012 06:06 PM

Agreed.

Sutty 08-23-2012 06:49 PM

Mine's a Sonic (ultramarine in US) Blue 86 GTS.
I was thinking of calling it Hedgehog i.e. Sonic the Hedgehog
My 'mates' have already named it Waffle, i.e. Blue Waffle (NSFWork/Wife) :eyebulge:
I think that no matter what they will always call it that, jealousy is a terrible thing. :happyanim:

The "road scalpel" because I cut corners with precision.
