My blue civic back in 2005 was nicknamed cobalt. “You can take cobalt to pick dad up at the airport”. Something I had picked up from Gone in 60 seconds that I found cool (naming cars, not cobalt)

    My car is brown.

    The first time I brought it home without telling my wife the color, she was unimpressed and said that it was “shart colored”.

    We immediately named it “El Sharto”, and 5 years later the name has stuck

    My last car was named Alice after the “Alice in Chains” mix cd that was left in the cd changer when I bought it.

    My current car isn’t named, because I think it might be cursed and I don’t want to give any more power to it.

    i had just purchased this vehicle ('80 celica sunchaser) in west vrginia, and was driving it back when white rabbit came on the radio… the song ended and i start flipping through channels and i stumble on white rabbit playing on another station!

    the song ends and i start scanning again and i shit you not, i found a third white rabbit playing.

    We own a VW Polo and called it Pollie. Then I got a newer Polo, company car. We called it Marc, as in Marc-O-Polo

    My first car was a green buick lasabre that I got from a relative. It was held together by duct tape and redneck engineering, and wasn’t even supposed to make it through high school. As a condition for receiving the car, I had to continue calling it the green hornet. Ever since, my cars have been named after a famous movie vehicle. My current car is a blue civic, so naturally I had to name it the bluesmobile

      Haha, I was reading through these and realized we both named our catch a rides after a borderlands theme. Mine is Hyperion, or hype for short.

    I bought a Tesla Model 3 back when they were new and I like Halo, so I named it “Silent Cartographer” for both being quiet and going places. It’s wordy AND nerdy, so I don’t really refer to it by its name.

    My first car was named “Safely”. Regardless of the quality of my driving, I was driving Safely.

    My current car is Carefully.

    Previously, I had a Kia that I called The Kill Ya, a cavalier that I dubbed The Crasholier, and my first car I called The B-Mobile.
