my Subaru Impreza Coupe 22B...
tuned up 850hp...
called it "THE GOBSTOPPER"...

c'mon guys! search it on youtube!
 
I call my 458 "Franchesca" (It sounds italian)
my GT-R "Gary" (can't think of anything that starts with g)
my RGT "The beetle on steroids" (self explanatory)
my 380RS as "The Ricemobile" (still love it though)
 
I have gave all the TC cars I bought different and unique paint schemes and they correspond to Superheroes.

I got the idea for a photo-set I was making on flickr.
 
I have 3.

First, a Nissan GT-R TC that I named "Weapon of Choice", my favorite GT car in GT5.

Second, a Dodge Ram that I fully tuned and went drifting with it. I call it "Big Show".

And last, a Lamborghini Gallardo that I modeled after my OC pony that I called the "LP 630-4 StellaLuna". I gave it that name because her last name is StarMoon, and I though it seemed right to give it the Italian translation because it sounded cool.
 
I call my tuned up Stagea the drive-thru-mobile because I like to imagine pulling up to the drive-thru at McDonald's with it and revving the engine to scare the crap out of everyone and peeling out after i got my Mc-Double.
 
I have a gold chrome City Turbo II with silver chrome rims called 'The Darraghmobile' after someone at my old school. It's absolutely incredible.
 
If I have a sexy car that has girly or feminine looks, I might name it Caster or Tamamo, hahaha!

Kidding aside, if you're curious to know, those said names we're from a video game.
 
Hayabusa - My Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo, which will set a sub-50s lap on Tsukuba. Named after the Nakajima Ki-43.

Aside from that, I haven't really named any of my cars yet. I really need to come up with some for all of my rotaries, especially my RX-7 TC.

Now that I think about it, maybe I should start calling my Tank Car "Mako"....

(Anyone who gets that reference gets a cookie.)

Maserati GranTurismo: The Yacht
TVR Cerbera Speed 12 (Maxed out): B**** won't go straight [when I tried it on CH Tires on the Nurb]
 
I have many (go to Clueless Tunes in the tuning forum to see them all), but one of my favorite is my Honda Beat "off" :dopey:
 
Maserati GranTurismo: The Yacht

In a shuffle race I got the Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG and I decided to call it "Titanic", because it didn't respond very well to any attempts to steer it.

This is my latest car, a Lamborghini Gallardo painted in Milano Red. I named it "Alpenrose":

Brown and White GTR I call Gizmo... Just keep it out of bright sunlight, keep it out of the rain (unless you want 5 little hostile GTR's running around) and most importantly you do not change it's oil after midnight. Follow those simple rules and it does excellent!
 
I do occasionally, and I've had some I'm now embarassed to admit. The ones I'm not include the Pain Train (Dodge Ram), Black Ops Racer (Viper GTS-R Concept painted a black color - I think it's Off-Black Mica but I'm not sure, and it's definitely not very off), and California Yellow (tuned 1960's VW Beetle in DLC metallic yellow, the name refers to what the color should be called). I could probably come up with more, but am too tired.
 
I call my Suzuki GSX-R/4 with an 7 liter Twinturbo V8 "smoker"...
with 760bhp on 640kg, it smokes every car...
 
Well I call my recent EVO build "Black Mamba", in reference to the actual car which it's based on.

That's about it though :lol:
 
My Ford F-150 SVT Lightning: Git 'r done! :sly:
Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie Hemi Quad Cab: The Cougar
Toyota Tacoma X-Runner: 'Lil Drifter
Madza Atenza: 'Lil Wimp (Has a wimpy 171 hp engine:crazy:
