haha, nice post.
but in my opinion...whether the vette be a 53 blue flame, a 67 L88, a crossfired 84 or the latest ZR-1, all vettes have a character of their own. and ALL deserve to be named. my 2 cents.

Over the past few years of working on (The Car) it seems to get called a few things when things do not go well. So I guess it is either (the Car or sob) although it depends on how it is behaving at the time it might get called by severial other names. It has idenity issues all the time, I think it might have a split personality.

My daughter calls my 68 "McQueen" after the car in the "Cars" movie. Doesn't matter my car isn't a C6 or red (68 is bronze) but to her it's a Corvette, and in her world thats close enough
I personally don't name cars, except when something goes wrong

Ohhhh, I agree with the guys who don't name cars. I just refer to mine as it or the year. There are however other names I've used in the past like %#^*, %&# and on and on. LOL They do have a tendency of being called SPECIAL names at times.
