Its figurative speaking, not literal. Like "shes runnin' good' "shes runnin' hot"..... Not like it has actual sex organs

Just because you consider it a beautiful female doesn't mean it doesn't kick @$$.

Well, the license plate on the Z06 says "MR HYDE" so that answers that.
Our new CTS Coupe has the other plate "DRJEKYL" but we call that one the "Caddie"
Our Silverado is named "Dianne", my wifes dd, and we refer to the truck as "she"

I refer to my corvette as "it". I would never consider it "she" because my corvette makes me happy, always looks good and doesn't get fat.

Default Cylon 6

I have taken a middle aproach HAA HAA. I think of my car as a version of cylon 6 (machine but looks like a very hot babe) In fact am thinking of making my plate sat CYLON-6. Haven't got there yet but something about a torch red vette vert with a supercharger hidden beneath the hood.

I had a simple rule where I never dated a woman who could out bench-press me.

Although my wife sometimes refers to my C5 as "the other woman", I simply call it "The Vette".

However, someday I plan to add a C6Z or C7Z to the stable and I will then need to further differentiate. At that time, I will probably call it "The Vert" vs. "The Z".
