I simply call mine the Vette. Not into giving cars names and such, although if something goes wrong I may call it a few choice words.

"Old School" and "New School". My kindergarten aged grandson and I shared Corvette Thursday every week when I'd take him to school and pick him up, both of us wearing our Corvette shirts. Each Thursday he would walk out the door and make his choice of the '84 Old School or the supercharged '00 New School. Believe it or not, he picked Old School most of the time.

Anymore, mine is "Money Pit".
Let me correct that... It was "Money Pit" but I got everything fixed. Now it's just "the Vette".
