The name of my 72 corvette 454 is Slots
She is like a slot machine that I always have to feed her with money for all the things that need to be replaced, repaired, or break down.

Wow this is a good one. I have had her for over a month now and have not thought of one. All though myself and my friends all refer to her as my baby, ticks off the gf when she is around too lol

For some reason when I just thought about this Maggie popped into my head.. so I guess that is her name..

I've called my car a lot of things (most of which I can't print here), but I've never named it.
