Mine is, Avril. Happened to be the first artist to play in the car on a mix of 6 MP3 CD's while my GF was in the car. She thought, Avril was a good name for a white car.
I have named all my auto/moto toys throughout the years. I don't see why I shouldn't, it makes sense to me. I paid money for something I chose to have in my life.
The way I see it... a good majority of people name their kids and pets... of which, most are accidents anyway. Either you drunk-screwed and she got pregnant, it broke and she got pregnant, or whatever. Not planned and not intended upon, yet you named it. Pets, sure there are those that choose, but I'd say a good number are adoptions from relationships or gifts from loved ones. Not planned or intended upon. Yet, they get names. Heck, we have names. I mean, technically we don't need them. You could be called, fucktard-person-who-doesn't-believe-in-naming-inanimate-objects, and we'd all know who's being talked about. I could be called, dickwad-who-drank-a-wee-bit-much-vodka-a-wee-bit-early-now-won't-go-out-to-play-chicken-with-the-po-po's. And I'd know who was being talked about.Heck we could even go by race/color.
So why should mistakes be the only ones privileged with a name. Hell, you probably even name your dick... and it's inanimate most of it's life too.
Don't feel sorry for the other user, feel sorry for yourself. That you would elevate yourself above another person on an automotive enthusiast web forum, that you are a member of.
I hope you don't continue modding your car, cause that would be stupid. Or if you do, ensure you mod your kid(s) too... cause they're likely to come out ignorant otherwise.
uhhh what? You're relating naming your car to having children by accident? Yea that make sense.
Naming a car is Stupid, Just like personally attacking people on the internet.

My point exactly... as you just did to the other user and now me. My post was just a drunk-rant. Where as yours just proves you're ignorant.
We're all here for the same reason, yet you seem to hold yourself above others just because some choose to name an inanimate object. Well, that same inanimate object is one you chose to invest time and money in with racing or modifications.
Naming an inanimate object costs literally nothing and can be viewed as a some type of affection/ownership, to show acceptance of that inanimate object. Racing/modding on the other hand, shows an even greater amount of affection/ownership. Whether it because the car wasn't good enough to begin (read: competitive) with or because it's a matter of personal choice. Either way, you've actually shown more affection for your car by racing/modding it than you had if you just named it. It's just a car... really only meant to be driven from point A to point B.
So keep racing/modding you're unnamed car. It just shows us that deep down inside, you really do love your car... even beyond the silliness of naming. Cuz if not for the love of the car, then you're racing/modding for the acceptance of others in a need to belong. If that be the reason, that's just pathetic.
Whatever, peace to you and your Wagon of Doom, as your Sig so whole-heatedly exlaims.
SCCA... Silly Car Club of America. Yeah, I was a member... for just under a year. The egos were just a little too big for their cars, at least in the local chapter. Let me know if things are different in yours.

haha this thread is funny. xD well lets make something epic hehe. ok my car is named yukiko..yuki means snow and ko means girl..i chose this name cause my car is white. haha white reminded me of snow and usually guys call their cars a "she" so thats where the girl comes in. anyways yea people make fun sometimes but other times people are kool about it. i remember one time, me and my gf were talking about my car and i brought up the name and she asked me y i chose it. i told her well if she rode in my car, there would be some girl on girl action and maybe we could have a threesome. she thought it was cute and creative..haha
so yea. who cares if u name things..my friends all named their cars girl names too..i met some people who named stuff like guitars and surfboards..people name their teddy bears and blankets so whats the difference from a car? haha maybe i'm weird cause i live in hawaii..we live in grass shacks after all right...<-sarcasm...
btw this is my first car so there is some personal attachment..haha

why didnt I think of that?? jeez i suck
99% of the time i just refer to my car as "The Speed"...back before i met my fiance i never called my cars anything but since he owns a body shop and he has a bunch of projects they all get names lol...but we got a 1968 La Sabre we call Buela, his 66 Ford is Ol' Bessie, and the 66 Ford parts truck i call "The Green Bean"..its green and his 89 Chevy we call Ol' Red...alright anyways..cars tend to get names so we know which one we are referring to its easier that way 
hahaha, what a thread. This place has more drama than Hollywood lately.
what is happening in here people?? you guys are making a huge deal over a pretty harmless thread, lets relax a bit.
and for what its worth, let me just see how uncommon or dumb naming a car is, try google searching "eleanor" and see how many of these come up:
Oh sweet Eleanor, probably the only Ford that I ever oogled over.
i was going to post the exact same thing when i first replied. Gone in 60 seconds is one of my favorite movies.
Thanks bro! (rofl2)
I named mine Naomi Michele - I MOAN backwards, hehe... and Michele, well, shes a beautiful redhead I know, and I have this thing for redheads but never can manage to get close to one, so Naomi is the only "redhead" I will ever be in (True Red, btw). So yeah.
And yes, I talk to her, and yes, I refer to her by name, and yes I give her a personality, and yes when I have fun in her I kiss the fuggin steering wheel or the hood or whatever, and DAMMIT I MISS HER!!! Sorry, Ive been in the Mojave Desert for the last month and shes sitting back in San Diego, alone.
