Best Car Name(s)

[benzoboy]

For most people, a truly magnificent car can usually be given its status by looks, sound or in some cases I've heard of people recognising a car from the interior smell. No joke. But I ask you, what would a car be if it had no name? Could you imagine the 'Porsche Untitled' or the 'TVR _____'? That'd suck.

Anyway, usually, car names are usually pretty normal words like 'Neon', 'Clio' or 'Focus'. Some are just numbers like '911' or '360' and some are just downright awful such as the 'Daihatsu Applause'. But every now and again, a truly awesome car name comes up. So I thought, 'Why isn't there a thread for this stuff?'. So I made one.

Anyway, on topic. I always thought TVR had some bad-ass names.

- Cerbera
- Griffith
- Sagaris
- Chimaera

So post your favourite car names up!

Buick had a lot of great names that they decided to attach to pathetic cars. I also nominate the Shelby Cobra and its son.

Shelby Cobra reminds me, Dodge Viper!

I saw that and thought it said "Daihatsu Applesauce" for a split second, which would have been weird even for Kei car standards.

Oh I dunno, this is the company that also sells a car called the Naked. Which, rather appropriately, looks like an empty wardrobe.

Mustang, Charger, Challenger, Avenger, Barracuda... the Americans have the knack

 

[Rykon Zero]

Maserati Khamsin. Such a cool name.

Midway between thought and deed should have been Search.

For then you would have seen that there is a thread for this stuff.

And it would've been an epic gravedig. That topic was last updated FOUR YEARS AGO!
