Yep, mine is Scarlett, aka Scarlett Vixen - vanity plate: SCRLTVXN. My friend saw her and said, she's a Scarlet Vixen and it stuck.
My first 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider was always red, so "The Tomato"; I call the current one the Tomato, too, even though she's grey.
Love, Love, LOVE the 86 - it's a blast and I can get a whole car event (Grand Prix Festival of Watkins Glen Glenora Run) in her, but I did in the Alfa this year, too!!
Great car.

I function on humorous self deprecation.

my Velocity Orange MY14 86 GTS is called "Dingo" for two reasons, it's orange like a dingo and more relevant, on the way home two hours after I bought it, I hit a dingo/wild dog in it causing approx $4K in damage.

I usually call it "the red one" because I never talk to anyone who knows cars.
