I named my moms old car "The Pizza". Because of the spare tire I put on it was the size of a old burned up pizza. lol, A neighor of mine had a thrasher car when he was in high school, that he and his buddies would go around town smashing mail boxes, and trashing yards in. They called it "the Fatmobile".

My daughter calls it "Rari".

I call her "Isabella" - that way this middle aged man can have his affair with a sexy Italian girl and still stay married!!

My son (age 3) likes to go for rides in the "Safari"...double dig on his part as I am a Ford truck guy to boot.

One of my dad's old girlfriends (she was from Argentina, pretty wild lady, reminds me of the wife in the movie Blow, minus the coke addiction) called it Rossa Rossa, la mas hermosa. Granted it's an Italian/Spanish mix and not just Italian, but if I was gonna named it I guess I would go with Rossa Rossa. I'm with Richelson though in that many a time I call it some other more creative names, as well I curse about the Ferrari engineers and employees.

I name all my cars - past, current and future. I even name boats that are not large enough to name! I thought I was the only one that was hungup on naming stuff. Glad to see I have a lot of company! Nika, you would have loved Tweety my M3 - Dakar Yellow!

'Lucretia' after Lucretia Borgia the Italian countess ! She had 3 husbands and was a very fiery woman, ruthless and unforgiving if treated wrong !
I'm the third owner of my GTS and obviously must pander to her every whim to stay on her good side.

My old Fiero had a small bird like a miniture version of the Firebird. My wife said it looked like a chicken and she always called the car 'Chickie'. My Europa is 'Lotush' as that's my licence plate.

So Ernie, when you leave the office do you tell them you're taking a memo?

Hey guys, I have named most of the cars I have had. The latest car to receive a name is my 348, named him "Memo". Most of my cars get guy names. I have had only one car that got a girl name.

Some of the past names have been:

Elwood
Uncle Buck
Chiquilla
The HOG

Wondering if you guys do the same?
