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 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.

    My father always called my sisters car “Beulchen”, which is the german diminutive word for dent. It was a very basic Ford Fiesta. No wireless car key, no electrically controlled side mirrors but at least it had AC.

    My 2014 Mazda 2 is named Maria, my 2014 Hyundai Elantra GT is named Elaine, and my 2011 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ is named Crystal. Sadly, we need to sell Crystal, it’s like losing a family member. You name it, you own it.

    “Chaser” because we live out in the country and use it to pick up our dogs who sometimes wander off and we have to go retrieve. Also, because it’s a Chevy. It’s Chevy Chase_r_.

    I named my 2007 Audi S4 Brunnhilde. She is my beautiful Valkyrie, though I rarely see her nowadays.

    First car was a pre-owned white '91 Ford Escort GT that I named Gypsy Jo. She was my traveling companion and served me well until some uninsured bitch rear-ended me.

    Second car was Moonshadow, a brand-new blue '99 Honda Civic Si. He saw me through a bad breakup and we had many adventures together. I sold him to a car enthusiast in 2016 for $6500.

    Current car is a pre-owned black 2011 Subaru Impreza Outback named Ira. He saw me safely on a long 14-hour drive when I recently moved.

    We own a Rose Gold Fiat 500 electric, aptly named Lady Penelope.

    Curious to see if anyone will spot the correct reference:)
