Wife named it Blue ***** as that's what I will be getting if I continue to spend too much money on the Steel Blue Metallic coupe.

Never really got into the 'naming cars' thing. Seems kinda silly to me.

Word. Why name them.....are they gonna come when I call them? Hell, I have pets three months before I bother naming them.

But I guess it wouldn't take that much effort would it? OK...after 12 years of ownership, I've decided to name him Harry.
