Default Names for the car

Just curious if any of you had named your S.

Mine is Marilyn .... the car is 'blonde', very fast, sleek, and curvy.

My car is due in April. I'm very active in the BMW CCA organization and have always run a Honda. Everybody is great about it, but they do like to take cheap shots when ever they can. Soooo my S2000 will be called "My 2002" when I'm in that croud.
I've never named any of my cars, don't know why!

Mako. . .

Just came to me!

It's really odd because I never named my '00. . .I put 38k miles on that car and never felt the need to name it anything. . .sometimes I nicknamed it "sexy," but I use that for my wife!!!

My new '02 just looks like a shark and the name Mako fits her like a glove. . .

Initially I named her "Grace" cause that's how she drove; with a lot of Grace.

After my roommate had 2 accidents with her (first one at 4 days old), then some moron ran a stop sign and took out her right side... Let's see to date the front bumper's been replaced/painted 5 times, she's been painted/replaced from front left 1/4 panel to back right taillight...

"Christine!"

my last car was an audi a4... distinctly female... i named her ilse after dr. ilse schneider from the last indiana jones movie. paying homage to her teutonic roots i guess.

sadly, after getting to know my s2k, i decided that he is distinctly male. after some consideration i named him "Ichiro" after Japanese import baseball star Ichiro Suzuki, who's name happens to mean "number one"
