Default What Did You Name Your Car?

I named mine "TAZ" after i saw an animal show on the "TAZ devil", crazy animal that howles and snorts like the devil and will take on anything reguardless of size.

I also call it "the roller skate" since it's silver but only on long trips when i'm stuck on the straight highway for hours and i can't take the wind, the ride and the noise from cruising at 75...

I still don't have a name for mine. Is that weird? Nothing seems to fit. I think it is a boy, but guys don't generally call their cars by a guy's name.

Maybe I'll go for "Pat", or "Chris" for androgony's sake. Hahahaha.

Those are too plain. Maybe a nice Japanese name like Jay619 did........Akachan! Or Shinku like Shockwave667 did. I think those a not gender specific.

My S2k's name is Uzi. He was named after one of the sons of Ben Stiller's character in "The Royal Tenenbaums"- he (Chas Tenenbaum) named had two sons named Ari and Uzi. I thought that was a pretty cool name, and besides the S2000 is really loud so I thought the machine gun reference pretty well described the experience of cruising at 90mph with the top up

Also, the name goes well with my other car which is named EZ.

The Royal Tenenbaums was a great movie BTW
