What's your SVX's name?

I know.. Some of us find such things trite and a little childish. Others swear by it (or use it to swear AT it.).

If you have a pet name for your SVX, what is it?

We already know Penny's..

(Just for the record, I've yet to name mine...)

I've always called my Subarus, simply, "Subaru."

"Mornin', Subaru."
"Get me home, Subaru."
"Umm, we're upside-down, Subaru."
"Alright, what was that noise, Subaru?"

Mine is Su (didn't think it needed the 'e' in Sue). Just short for Subaru, not too creative I suppose.

Mine doesnt have a name... but I talk to my car all the time...
I have done this with all cars I own... and every time...
my cars seem to let me know before something bad happens to them... like when my Radator started to leak... i knew cause her temp went up just above half... i knew something was going to happen...

but a name... no.. not yet... I usaly just call her Sexy

I was driving too fast, lost it on a curve, hit an embankment, flipped and landed on the roof. In short, I pulled a very dumb stunt and ruined a pretty little, mica ruby GL 3-door.

i havent called mine anything more than "my happy car"
the only car i really talked to was a 94 ford aerostar (condolences to anyone who has driven one) but that was usually things like "DONT DRIFT INTO THAT POLICE CAR DAMMIT!!!" or "Please make it to the driveway before you die..." i could go on but, nah.
