And the Avalon is...you guessed it! "The Avalon" (Although sometimes I do call it the Babylon...I don't know why....)

i can't quite wrap my head around how you named your cars.....

my siblings/parents will refer to it as "your car", so most of us will have our cars recognized by the same name!!!

I don't do it often.

Blue Car:

Hm... even though I'm car-holic, I never named my car. Current car is named by my lil bro. He calls it "Red Charisma". Not from Ini-D wanna be, but from Gundam (my bro is Gundam fan).

I'd probably call her my Eighty-Six lol... Or just Eight-Six

I have a crystler seabring and just call her Seabring :P Same with the Lada I once owned. It's name was Lada haha

Guff · 01-12-2012, 07:44 PM

Yeah, I'm gonna try to remember to call it Hachiroku, because I really like that, but I will probably end up calling it the BRZ(or FRS, depending on which one i get).

That @$@#% Money Pit!

SVTSHC · 01-12-2012, 08:15 PM

SHINCHU86 · 01-12-2012, 08:49 PM

my camaro's name is buckwheat lol

or LEROY when he's angry haha

oh and i put a ton of thought into the name of my FR-S.

you guys remember the story of the baby that was found 4 days after the japan quake/tsunami?
one of these days i will fiind out the little survivor's name, and that will be the name of my FR-S.

duffman13 · 01-12-2012, 10:07 PM

86 probably.

Or hachiroku, but i don't want to sound too otaku-like

Actually, I'll probably call it AS1 just like i referred to my A4 as B5 and my RSX as DC5

nate89 · 01-12-2012, 11:10 PM

I never name my cars or anything else for that matter. My freshman year of college my beta fish was named "Fish". Similarly, my truck was called "truck". (I fear for the day I have kids and have to name them lol)

However, girls always seem to name my vehicles for me.

My lowered green tacoma was named Franklin

I never let anyone name my cars after that, but oh how they tried...

It's like adopted children, you don't name them because they've already been named.
