I just refer to her as "her"

BTW, do you actually have the front nose shown in your avatar? If so are you happy with it, and how does it mount?

Yah, I usually refer to her as "You son of a bitch"


When I'm in a good mood though (which is not usually) its "You damn thing"

Either way, she's never flattered.

Mine is called BUZZRocket. Got the license plate to go with it (BUZROKIT). When people ask, I say its the name of a firework I saw once. But in reality, It's the name of an ex-girlfriends favorite vibrator.
I always knew that if I ever got a car or a bike worthy of the name, I would christen it with that noble title, in her honor!!! Thanks ANN!!! <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

My first Porsche, an 83 944, was in critical condition when I bought it - so we called her Code Red. When I bought the 951 everyone called it Code Red II. Then I sold the 944, so now it's just Code Red.

No name for the 924S.

I think I'm gonna have to figure out a name for my car...

Nowadays I just call it "Porschen" which is swedish for "the Porsche". (Hard one huh? )
