"Nebuchadnezzar." I call it "Neb" usually. This was the heroes' vehicle in the Matrix movie series, and I liked the name. That was in the first movie. Then the fools blew it up in the second movie! I didn't like that too much.

My other cars in recent memory have not had names. I owned an '82 Fiat Spider from '86 - 91 and that was "Sophia" (my sexy Italian).

Flts, very funny!

We usually call it the "S."

My granddaughter calls it "Papa's baby car." As in "Papa's washing his baby car again."

Well I don't have a name for the S, but everyone else calls it my "mid-life crisis car"

^ anyone else really hate that description?

I mean, really, can't someone just be a car nut? Or, perhaps that's just a crisis to begin with!

I named my truck and my snowmobile, the truck is big blue and the sled is little blue I call them brothers and yes they are both blue. My S I haven't named but everybody alway's refers to it as 'that little red car' so maybe I should come up with an official name. I occasionaly called it the 'hoyt mobile' but that didn't really stick.

While I won't say that I name my cars, I will admit to calling them some pretty colorful (and unprintable) names while working on them,,,
