Well did ya?
List it here if your car or cars have names.
Some of my former cars....
1978 Subaru GF (Goofy or Shubaru) My Dad could never say Subaru.
1974 Capri (Gelbi ) - German word for yellow is Gelb. Obviously it was a yellow car
1974 Capri (Casper) White car
1993 Protege (never named this one)
1987 Mazda Truck (Dad's Truck) Inherited it from my Dad.
1995 Mazda Miata M-Edition (Princess) Ex-wife's Miata with a slushbox.
1999 Mazda Miata 10AE (Annie)
Current fleet below
The focus: the slowcus, the jelly bean
Yup...
'99 VW Passat - The Lead Sled or "THE" Car.
'91 Miata - The BUR
'93 Honda Accord - Car
I used to have...
'79 VW Bus - Orange and white... called it the Dreamsicle
Yep!
'99 Miata - "POS III" The name that just will not die! My daughter calls it "speedy"
'02 Miata - "Vivid" (As in Vivid Yellow)
'67 Cadillac - "da lac"
'06 Toyota 4Runner - "yota"
BTW. This Post is "Bull" so that's where I moved it! ::Bust1::
Didn't name a car until the miata, but named some of my friends cars in high school.
VW bug -the cat - It had 9 lives, we jumped it, wrecked it, abused it and it wouldn't die.
77' Merc Cougar - The SkateTank - It died when he plowed into a parked 55' Chevy lowrider truck, I was asleep in the back seat.
Back to the miata, my dad has named his first miata Baby, so I had to name mine when I bought it. I came up with Maddie, my grandmothers name was Madeline, and I know she's up there laughing at my dad and I playing with our miatas together.
The Civic seems to have been named Red cuz it's a red car. Boring I know, but that's its personality. Sure does haul a lot though.
I've only had two cars to my name(well not really to my name so much as my parents, but they were "my cars")
The first being an '85 Caprice Classic which somehow got the name Strobl-Mobile(Strobl is my last name).
And now my Miata which so far lacks a name, but I've only had it for about 6 months now so it hasn't quite gotten one yet.
My first car didnt have a name, and my miata is named Abby.
My miata's are named after the color:cat: Wife's BMW is the beemer and the '85 F250 is know as the truck or tank.
However my mother names ALL the her cars a differnt name. Betsy was a whte staitonwagon that she drove in the 60's:D Many trips to El Paso in that old thing.
Naming your car is ::Fruity::
The Miata is named Kagami (Japanese for the word "Mirror"), as the car is a reflection of the road to my soul. On a side note in regards to that, the "reflection" made learning to drive the Miata a very pleasant experience.
I've never given much thought to it, but it seems a few of my cars have or had names.
'89 Hyundai Excel (hey, it was cheap!) was the Stump Mobile...and the sticker mobile for a while.
'63 Falcon 'vert had no name
'96 Z24 had no name but was definitely a boy (all leaks from the front)
'01 Z24 was just the b*tch
'91 Cavalier station wagon is Wagonstein or Sleeper, depending on the day
'92 A has no name, as none has made itself apparent or needed as of yet.
current clasic red miata "BAM!"
-the first week i had it almost got something everyday; someone backing into me, a truck ALmost backing into me, near misses..etc, i also dreamed of wrecking it almost every night for a month!..that and all the other dents and dings....
-97 brilliant black miata RIP (because of ex) "Spike" black small mean and tough....
-92 nissan maxima, white w/ red hood. "the maxi-pad"
-87 chevy s10 blazer....no name.
Is the pope Catholic?????????
um, no. That's weird.
Currently at my house are the following

I tend to be creative in other areas ::Clown::

92 Miata - Black Cherry previous owners painted it well...black cherry, black unless the light is just right then maroon coloured
96 Z28 - radar and silver ticket cause it was a freaking cop/radar magnet! I had sooo many bogus tickets in that car and had them dismissed!
90 MX5 - a name for my current baby hasn't yet come to me but Mika sure sounds good for a white euro spec with German plates.
I named my friend's 87 Crown Vic station wagon in high school. Ugly bastard was tan with fake wood siding! I found a sticker in the mall that said Shaggin Wagon in hippy letters and stuck in on the back window in between classes! Hilarious when we all came out and saw that on there!
OK.... I have thought about names for my car a lot over the 5 years I have owned it... nothing ever came to me. Yesterday, I said to my wife "I have a headache.... I'm going to take the Miata for a little drive". She answered "aspirin would be quicker" and we laughed. Out of no where, I said "Miata... Little, yellow, different". And I thought, that's it! My Miata is Nuprin... It's little, yellow, different, and makes headaches vanish into thin air! We will see if it sticks.
Only vehicles I ever named was my: First Car ('73 Merc Waggon w/429) named by my friends "Queen Mary," first sailboat "DeadWind" and my '85 Yamaha V-Max "Maxien"
I guess I'm not big on names, unless something just sticks out ;)
:lol: that's funny!Quote:
