I call my C4 "The '88".
I have to come up with a new name for my 2006. I can't call it "The new one" anymore, because its a year old.

Drago, just like the Russian from the Rocky movie who says I WILL BREAK YOU. That's what this car tries to do everytime I try to mod the damned thing. It beats me up in the process but I eventually win

I'd like to refer mine by the colors, but the '88 is 'Charcoal Metallic'. It's a rare color that looks like a shade of brown, but its too nice to call brown. So I call it the '88.

My mechanic named the '77:
Demon Car From Hell (sure he broke his hand...it's ALWAYS the car's fault), the '85 is the '85.
