Orr89RocZ · 10-16-2009, 10:09 PM

I kinda dont have a set name, but i've been refering to it as Black Widow alittle.

Last year it was just refered to as Beast...

Now with the twin turbo setup, my buddy calls it Vader since he's a star wars buff and I'm not. It is kinda fitting tho..its pretty bad *** and evil

novafirebirdguy · 10-16-2009, 10:20 PM

Well put.

I could not picture naming my car after a man when I find my car sexy.

Bullydawg · 10-17-2009, 03:39 PM

My car is named Felicia, but my buddies call her The Beast.

AlkyIROC · 10-17-2009, 04:17 PM

I had Quicksilver on the side of my car for a few years. I saw the name on a truck and thought it would make a good race car name. I kept hurting engines so just after the second Pirates of the Caribbean came out, I figured since my car was cursed, I changed the name to Black Pearl. A few years having that name, the parts stopped breaking so I decided to strip the name and all the decals off the car and give it a flat black paint job with flames.

The car currently has no name although I may write Elvira somewhere on it this winter. I have still have the skull and crossbones license plate on the rear.

Trippy, yea i know i need to get a better name for it but eh i like it.

greatpumpkin_68 · 10-20-2009, 04:22 PM

reasons to name your car a female name instead of male:

1) like my girl.. don't mess with my car
2) no one drives my car but me
3) she's a beauty
4) she costs a lot.. but she's worth it.

.. i don't know.. more ideas??

greatpumpkin_68 · 10-20-2009, 04:27 PM

oh... high maintenance!!

Saber · 10-20-2009, 04:58 PM

My Camaro is named Ellie, or my child, but now shes off the road, even though she was NEVER nice to me and i was always nice to her and even though shes not even registered to drive i still have her parked in my complex. My T/A is named Ruby, but my friends call her the devil because like my Camaro, she always breaks, no matter how much time/money i spend she always breaks.

Thirdgens are like the women we hate to date they're: overweight……high maintenance……have a wide rear end……breakdown at anytime……have their fair share of 'mileage'……what they 'put out' is often overrated...and less than expected......with that in mind…it shouldn't surprise women that so many men look for a gal that's skinny……low-maintenance……low mileage……and normal......we've got enough to deal with.

Cars and women are all the same. No matter how much stuff you buy 'em they're always making you dig in your pockets for more.

Just remember, she ain't no trailer queen.....she's my street b1tch

TimeTraveller · 10-20-2009, 06:16 PM

Mine's Time Machine.... I'm using styling cues and such from different generations of TA's, and some old fighter plane references also.

TimeTraveller · 10-20-2009, 06:20 PM

Project,

I love the console lid....I was thinking of a similar treatment for the map pocket in the dash on mine...where did you get that done?
