I just call her " Savanna"....I know, it's used already in Japan but it's such a cool name...something I might even call my daughter if I had one lol.

Mine smells too bad to give it a girl's name. Thats why I simply call him Rex.

previous owner backed into a square light pole which gave me 2 dents perfectly seperated on either side of my 3rd brake light. i love when chicks have the dimples right above there *** 2 so i call her brooke..my gf name. she thinks i call her that after her(go figure) but i really call her that because its like Broke which both the car and her make me..get more creative than that

7 7 7, so far the entire car (from me even buying it) has been a pure thing of luck, and now everything that is getting done with it and the paths it has opened up for me, its all just pure dumb luck, like getting the jackpot

I called my Supra "Vashti." It's Persian for "lovely" and it's a way super sexy name...

I haven't really driven my 7 enough yet to get a feeling for it's personality... So far I thing I'm leaning towards Felicity...

My FB's name is Nikki, partly after the carb, and partly because I just like the name. I also use baby every now and then, when I'm talking to her (yeah I talk to my car, so what). I've never named my previous cars, though I've called many of them names. Piece of ****, is the one I use the most for my Sunfire.

I've called one of my cars baby.. but thats because it was a plush car that didn't really give me any trouble. My kinda girl

I haven't got a name for the Rx7 yet.. its more like the car that i bought a year ago and is still sitting in the driveway with the engine in the shop (thing) haha

That aside I have thought of a vanity plate that I probably won't use and is probably old news... RX-HVN

my .02 I don't really see the RX7 as a girl it's too bad *** so I probably won't ever name it.

My S13 240SX is Vanessa. I think it's such a sexy name.

I just picked up my FC, so I don't think I've driven her enough to warrant a name...yet I'm definitely trying to think of something though.

My friend noticed one day how the exhaust smelled and I explained to him how the new exhaust I put on deleted the cats and when he replied to confirm what I just told him, he said... "Oh since you don't have any cats, the rotary funk is more noticeable?"

So thats why I call it Funk. Because it smells. LOL
