Meet Carmella
Yes, I named my new C7 rag-top. I thought a nice Italian name would fit its curves nicely. 2LT with performance exhaust and a few other options. I bought it out of dealer's inventory.

Never felt comfortable naming my Corvettes or any of my Harleys. I think it is a bit weird

A group of us were sitting around the bar talking about my new Corvette. Somebody asked if I named it. I said "Yes, I named it BJ because I always wanted one". My wife almost killed me
