Car Names

What do you call your CU2?

Personally, I haven't found a good name that suits her yet.

I'm sure you have a name for your pride and joy, your boo thang, your companion.

Or is it just a machine that's driven from point A to point B?

For reference, Sebastian Vettel @ Top Gear discussing Red Bull Racing F1 car names.

Honestly I call my cars what they are... ex.. The RL, the Yota, the Busa... but my old 86 chevy fullsize has always been called doodoo because of its special shade of paint.

I've never called my car anything other than "the tsx". I dont really see a purpose in giving my car a woman's name. Seems kind of weird to me.
