What is your car's nickname?
 
I know everyone has a nickname for their car. It gives them personality and sets it apart from everyone else's. So just for fun list your car, it's nickname, and why you chose it.

I'll start:

Car: 1989 supra
Name: Jennifer
Why: I just thought of it off my head, but later figured out an abbreviation for it. "JZ extreme never needing internally forged engine rebuilding" :rolleyes:

Car: 1988 Astro
Name: Astro aka Nastro van
Why: Its sick

97 acura integra-Someone else actually came up with the nick "Casper"-For my first 3 shoots of it,the backgrounds were a graveyard,and two abandoned factories.
90 Awd 1g talon-Undecided but i came up with atilla after like attila the hun because i think the til hun said fast sounds like talon to me.

'93 Dodge Spirit: Gaggaberry, Gaggy for short. It's a long story, don't ask.
'03.5 MSP: Gunner. I don't really know how it got its name, though I just as often referred to it as 'the MSP' or '**** you, you goddamn worthless piece of ****'.
'05 G35 Coupe: Garrett. Had to keep with the running G theme, and it's a snobby enough name to suit an Infiniti, though I just as often refer to it as 'the G'.

My entire family has ALWAYS named their cars. For example, at the moment .. My mom's Dodge Caravan is Gigi, my dad's Mazda Protege is Sprocket, my dad's Toyota Tundra is Gus, and my sister's Toyota Tacoma is Storm.

Car : 1996 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD
Name : Stinky
Why : 3" turboback, No cat with a wastegate dump tube. My girlfriend would complain about the smell of the exhaust after a pull or in traffic sometimes, so Stinky became the car's nickname.

1997 Talon: ****box 1, or just "No. 2"
1993 Talon: "That whore!" usually said while cursing or throwing tools halfway across my block, or the highway.
My 88 Teggy was Gertrude: ugly name for an ugly car.

Cankerblossom, mainly because my car had no name before I read this, and I am reading A Midsummer Night's Dream for class and just read that word in it.
