Just was curious to know, what have you named your car? Tell us the name and the story behind it.
I have yet to name my car, not sure if I want a masculine name or feminine name. Kinda gathering ideas, but nothing solid yet.
Off to work...
Toodles,
Becky
:p

MINI MAGNUS. Named after my cat actually, Maggie. (Yeah Maggie's a boy, what you got to say about it? :P) And stemming from my love of Transformers... Ultra Magnus is hanging from my rear view. By a noose. My car's a Decepticon.

Mine isn't rooted quite as deeply as Griff's, yet I think the name fits it perfectly. I chose to name mine "Bliss" and decided he's a guy because he's a little too masculine to be a female.

Mine is named Sprocket. It only took a few weeks to figure it out my mini's personality, definately a dude. It's a mini cooper S, and it takes off like a ROCKET... plus I'm a huge Jetsons fan... so Sprocket hehe. I'm sure there is a sprocket somewhere on my mini, and probably one loose in my head :eek:

I noticed something strange yesterday and today (mainly yesterday) and maybe Im just crazy but I popped in a CD (yes I said CD) in and started listening to it. I call it my "driving music" and for those of you who are familiar with Armin van Buuren you know what I mean. Armin van Buuren is techno/trance and his last cd (the one I have) is awesome... disk 1 "the beach."
Seems like I got a better response out of my Mini and I somehow managed to make to 406.8 miles to the tank as opposed to what I was getting at 361.4 miles per tank.....
*scratches head*
Call me crazy......
Still thinking about names for my car......
Hey Simplygriff.... are you going to go see the live action transformers movie coming out July 4, 2007? ( http://www.transformersmovie.com/main.html )
Check out the trailers... they are awesome!

P.s. my other half (nathan) chuckled when he read your comment saying that your car was a decepticon....

Yeah... I'm really apprehensive of that movie. There are just so few ties to the original series I'm afraid it's gonna be terrible. I'll go see it but I'm very worried about it. Thanks for the link though!

Madge... but I'm not sure why. I think it has something to do with one of minianni's relatives.

Mini Me after the diminutive villian in the Mike Meyr's movie, the Spy Who Shagged Me.

I haven't really thought of a name yet... it needs to be a girl's name though since "she" is so high maintenance and finnicky.

The Black Pearl was named after the ship in the Pirates movies. I'm an ECU Pirate... the car's black... you get the picture :)
