Default Gender and personality of your vette?

It seems that most vettes are girls: Shirley or Kerri or Donna or Lizzi or such . Am I the only one that has a male vette? Chime in, I want to know about the gender and personality of your C3.

Mine is named Mozart because he is beautiful, powerful and moving. He growls like a guy, rumbles and throbs. Yours?

My 11year old daughter named mine(ours) "CandyKorn" She was with me when I went to look at it and purchased it in October last year. Since the car is orange and bought during holloween the name has stuck. LOL.

"Pearl", is my wife's C3's name. It is pearl white, but with the side pipes and mild cam in the L46, "she" rumbles and throbs and will pass anything but a gas station!

I've always named my cars. My 1981 Vette is Pepper, cause she's black and spicy!

LOL. This is awesome! It seems more people have no gender for their car than I thought. Some even think it's odd for a car to have gender. Cool! I love the names too!

Another favorite Corvette 'game' I like is to ask "If you could be any part on your car, what would it be???"

That one is really fun....you can just imagine being a seatcover....or a radio ****. It's so exciting! But, I don't think it can compare with determining what 'gender' my car might be. That's the best!!!!!

My vette is a beautiful spoiled female that takes alot of time and money to make happy.

I've called her many things over the years, but never named her.

In more than 39 years of ownership, I never once laid awake at night agonizing over what to name my Vette. Not once. Nor in a dream or a drunken stupor.

As an aside, I have a vault full of guns. None of them cried out to be named either.

But if one of those guns was pointed at my head and I was forced to choose, JAKE would be as fitting as any.
