Haven't named any cars yet, but if I get the 302 XB I'm looking at I'll call her Angie, after one of my favorite Rolling Stones songs.

the F6 is called "EffSex" or simply "Phoon". My daughter wanted to call it "FiFi" so I sent her to her room......as you would

I always name cheap crappy cars I have, just so I have something to yell when they break down.

My present car has come to be known as "The rollerskate" That's it in the photo.. it feels like a rollerskate on the road, you sit so low.
