so do any of you have names or nicknames for your car? i call my 97 chevy lumina, "the luminator". it's not cuz i really think it's cool, but just cuz i felt like it.

one time, i beat a neon, so i figured my car was deserving of a nickname. i also tried to get a sponsorship for my car. i posted a myspace bulletin about it, i can't belive people took me seriously. not seriously enough to give me money tho :(

no...there's this road in downtown madison called East Washington *east wash* and all the ricers and wannabe's go out there. my friends and i go out there to hit up taco bell and we often race all these silly boys who think their car is hot. i've beaten some modified civics too. in the neon that i did beat, my friends and i were driving that same one and beat a very nice eclipse. only cuz the guy stopped to stare after i flashed him :naughty:

True x3
Keeping w/ the topic; I just usually call my cars "car" and nothing else. They both have done nothing significant to earn nicknames. Although at the Santa Fe forum I hang out at we just usually call our cars "Santy."
So "car" or "Santy" for me.

My car's name is Tenkuu... it's Japanese for vision. It has a double meaning, one: it's a vision of beauty (at least to me)
two: One of the big reasons I got it was a reward for getting my vision corrected

first car - a Minivan that I jokingly called "The Turbo" based on its blazing speed. Too bad this was in HS and everyone thought i was serious and always wanted to see it.
current car- doesnt really have a nickname (saturn sl2) although all of these have been used - Plastic, Saturn Rocket, American Ferrari, ShitBox

I had a 1986 Monte Carlo in highschool that my friends all called the SS Smoke-N-Choke. It needed valve seals and had a cracked ring so it left a fog everywere I went.

I'm not really a big car name person... Maybe I just haven't had enough cool cars. Sometimes the truck is called The DeRanger, no nickname for the Corolla (it's just a corolla) and the Porsche is called simply THE PORSCHE (in caps).
