I named my Black Rav4....

KITT

....because 'he' is my nightrider. (Spelling error intended)

What's yours?

    I have a 1989 Audi 200 named Christine. She just didn't like women. Christine lasted longer than my previous relationship. She would not always start up, she would not always keep the door open for ladies past & present.

    Christine was always ready for me to take her out and she did not like my newer Audi A6. If I left Christine alone in the driveway, parked in front of my A6 in the garage, she may or may not start. She did take back her rightful spot in the garage where she would often sit for months on end. Refusing to unlock her door or start... I've learned to live with Christine's hatred for my other cars and though she will always be my first, she won't be my last :)

    As much as I like all the other cars, they have no names... Only Christine.

    Hermoine. She's a red Corolla Seca. Named Hermoine because I really wanted a brand new Mazda 2 sedan named Herman, but he was a bit out of my price range, so I ended up with the Corolla, and she was red and looked like a girls car, so Hermoine it is :)

    Also named my mums Swift, Taylor. No explanation needed.

    The Honda is named Sheila because of the voice on the GPS and how she sounds pissed off if you don't do what she says (reminds me of an old roommate).

    I haven't named the Infiniti.

    I named my '99 Mercedes E320 Ophelia (Lia for short) because her curves are rounded, classic, and old-timey, like the name!

    My little cherry red Acura is named Betsy. The name just felt "right" as I was driving her home for the first time.

    My 1989 Ford Escort was named Veronica because an Archie and Veronica digest was left in the car when I got it. And I loved Veronica
    My 2003 Mistubishi Lancer no name, didn't have it long enough.
    My 2004 Ford Focus name is Shelby because I have taken it up to the mountain several times "She'll be coming around the mountain when she comes"

    my car's name is "The Chicken". me and my friends also have Moby's "True lies" as it's song! :laugh:
    The main reason is that it is a VW Polo, which has the same pronounce with pollo in Italian that means chicken! So in Greek I call it "The Chicken!"

    Rogelio. It was the name of one of the figurines my Filipino teacher had, and since a lot of Filipinos have Corollas around here (way to fit the stereotype, me), that was what popped into my mind first. u__u;;;

    My bright red Beetle has been affectionately named Rosie by a few friends. My theory is that it resembles rosy cheeks, but I've never been told exactly why. haha

    I have a gray Ford Escape (I don't remember the year). He's my little PJ, short for Poe Jackson. I was addicted to Poe and Michael when I named him...don't judge me!
