Only 'cause this kinda amuses me.
- My first car, which I got just before my 18th Birthday in 1990 - 1984 Subaru GL. Originally named 'Grey Poupon' because the car was a shade of gold that, when dirty, looked like Grey Poupon mustard. However, I had the car repainted British racing green - and renamed it the 'Green Poupon'
- 1993 Plymouth Laser. I named her 'Empress' because she was a bitch. She guzzled gas, had a multitude of expensive repairs, and did NOT like speeds below 40mph. Seriously - the car would sputter and complain below 40, and FLY otherwise.
- 1996 Toyota Celica. Never really named this car - but I did occasionally refer to her as 'Beauty'. She was sleek, and black, and AWESOME. Yes, to this day, my favorite car. I was very sad when she was turned into an accordion on Rte. 17.
- 2001 Toyota RAV4. He was called 'Darth Draco'. Originally I named him Draco, but then I was parked next to Abel's White RAV4 at Pennsic - and my black one beside it - they began to call it Darth. I liked it - it stuck.
- 2005 Subaru Baja. I named it 'Hermes'. Others decided to call this 'The Malcolmino". This was a silly car.
- 2007 Honda Fit. I call it "Morpheus' ('Morph for short) - for the King of Dreams from the Sandman series - not the character from the Matrix movies.
