Name your car!

[FunfGan]

The 5.0L swapped 318is has been Gretta for 4 years or so, Heidi the 325is Hennarot car has been named so for about 2 years.

I just call it lunchbox, lol idk why.

My first e30 I named Elsa

My current one has no name. But people just refer to it as "cute". I wish they'd stop

[SubDad]

I call all my cars "Car." As in "Thanks, Car" when they bring me home safely through crappy weather, or make nice sounds on a pleasant drive, or the brakes work well enough to keep me out from under that truck. Usually with a nice pat on the dash.
On occasions that I'm not pleased I don't call them names, I just fully describe their sexual habits and ancestry and make recommendations as to destination and modes of travel thereto given their marked lack of intellectual prowess. Sometimes I do that fairly loudly.

[QUKBMER]

My white e30 is named Ol'Betty and my silver e30 is named"The Dirty 30".

[rturbo 930]

I like to call mine "325is"

[TurboJake]

2 door = Betty
4 door = The stupid fucking ex's car that she abandoned in my garage that I need to make nice so I have a 4 door.
Probe = Simone
S12 = Peggy
Pathfinder = Shovel

I'm not good with this kind of stuff myself, but she's been called everything from 'dirty bowlegged whore' when i bash my hand on the floor getting the diff drain plug loose, to 'sweetie pie' and 'you sexy thang' when begging to start on a cold morning. also, i massage the dash while this happens.

the girls at school call her 'kristön' (christen?)

all my buddies call her 'the nazi sled'

I've never been one to give my cars human names or gender association. I typically refer to my car as the "Fuckin' Krautmobile," though if it had a name it would probably be Dieter.

I NEVER refer to a car a she, its bad luck, women are nothing but trouble.

My 320i is betsy and my 325is is pearl

[TheTacoMan]

shitbox

I'm sure some can relate

I call mine the turd mostly.
Also mostly because I end up breaking something everytime I drive it.

[henryki]

I named mine Tammy-Lynn because she's a dirty Jersey Slut just like Ted's girl friend in the movie Ted.

Name your car!

I haven't named mine yet, I didn't name my last two cars, the junk 97 civic or the junk 03 matrix, they had no soul, the E30 does. My friends named my 87 suburban the beast, or big red, or something like that. It was lifted and red and stuff. I also had an 87 ranger and an 87 econoline van with fold out bed and mini fridge. That was a total Chester the Molester van.

I think "breaking down" or something like that would be fitting, since it was probably a rolling meth lab at one time and I bought it broken down. Still undecided. For now I'll just call it Car, as in "that'll do, Car, that'll do."
