I will call it the Hatchiroku, but scream it loudly each time I say it...

ok probably just the 86 or FRS

It was branded a Scion FR-s at the factory, so that is what I'll call it. The Scion brand is not very popular around here (closest dealer is a 1.5 hr drive away), and most people don't even know what it is. I would imagine I'll tire pretty quickly of explaining the Toyota/Subaru link.

I`m calling my car Steven Seagal cause it breaks necks

Well, I've got an Asphalt FRS, my buddy said it looked like the Bat-mobile. I think I'll stick with that.

You should have added ZN6/ ZC6 to the list. I reflexively call mine an "eight-six" around non-car people (don't mean to confuse them, it's just how I've come to identify the car), and will probably refer to it as the ZN6 around car-freaks.

I can't call it 86 (Hachiroku) with ease, knowing well that that is another car that I have worked with for 20 years...

For me, it will be FT86 or whatever the Japanese tuner market will call it as general referred model name.
ZN6 seems to be catching on, as that's pretty much how other cars have been named in the manufacturer side of things, by its chassis code in Japan.

My car is officially a Toyota 86, I'll call it an 86. I usually call ae86's sprinters anyway.

I posted a question about adding poll options yesterday. Still waiting for a response. I'll add those if possible.

Assuming I get a BRZ, I'll call it a BRZ. If I get an FR-S I'm gonna call it an 86, and promptly swap out the badging with Toyota badges.

As for the car's nickname? I think "Artemis" has a nice ring to it; Artemis was known as the Greek goddess of the hunt.
