Default Poll: What did you name your car?

I think that a car with this much soul has to have a catchy name to go along with it. Even though I don't have my car yet, I'm milling around with some ideas: Kaisor, Conrad, Helmut (someone on this forum already uses this one-- very fitting), Han, Conan, or my frontrunner, Dante. It's Amulet red, so Dante seems to work well. We'll see what strikes me when I finally get it (between 2-6 weeks from now, long story...).<p>94 Accord EX :<

Default Zorro. Wife said "Looks like Zorro" after I put the front end cover on. It stuck.

Default Yep, I named mine "Helmut" (silver/blue 225QC)

Because of the way it fits like a helmet when you sit in it. Plus, according to the "TT Story" book, the mantra of all involved TT designers/engineers was to make this car feel "secure", they *wanted* it to fit like a "helmet".

I like Dante, very fitting... but how about "Victor"? Because the spoils of war always to go to the victor.

Default Dunno yet...

...but my wife and I were kicking it around a while back.

She has the '99 Green Beetle 1.8t GLS, and calls it Aphid (ya know, a Green Bug)

Now, she is calling the cars female, no matter what. We were trying to come up with a name for the TT Roadster.

I can't remember the exact conversation, but she said that her car would be jealous, I responded with something like 'Of course she's jealous, she's younger, she's cuter, and she can go Topless'

thought it was funny at the time. Still haven't come up with a name though. 8-)<p>Tom Boucher
