LOL That's my personalized plate. No silly name there bud. I also realized that nothing to be gained by being a premium member other than having access to what is widely available in the interwebs.

Carry on with naming your babies.

Naming a car? It came with a name!!!

I would think it is a sure way for owners of other cars to put down owners of Z's (and devalue it) as a car for juveniles and immature adults with time to spend coming up with names for a car and having discussions over it.

My 370z or my Zee or Nissan (if it's the only one you have) should do. Calling it an unrelated name is silly.

My wife calls my Z " mistress" as my mistress since I spend more time with her than wifey..

NO! Personally I would be embarrassed to refer to my car as any thing but " THE Z "
Don't be offended, ( maybe because I'm old ) but I don't get it.

lol not offended(not me anyway), you didn't enter and put down others who do name their cars, I respect that. To each their own, right?

That's what's it's all about !

OldGuyFla · 08-30-2016, 10:06 AM

As Old guy said The Z, it's not a name, just what it is!

Fuzzzy · 08-30-2016, 10:09 AM

Seems silly to me.

I once dated a girl who had named her car "Sputter." I think that is the only case I've ever seen where a car being named was appropriate. Or clever.

SurfDog · 08-30-2016, 09:47 AM

well...
My wife calls it "Thatdamnsecondcaryouspendsomuchtimeandmoneyon"

My 7 year old calls it "Daddy's racecar!"

The kids at my older kids high school call it "Whoa is that your dad's car?"

The rich Porsche guys at the track call it "That frigging fast a$$ ricer" (they are usually naming it while being passed)

I just call it awesome.

mishuko · 08-30-2016, 10:29 AM

Ok I named her but I always say it's my 'Z'

or if I'm joking 'my summer wife'

the name of Alina is only there in spirit. It's my Z.

Spooler · 08-30-2016, 10:40 AM

First of all this is not politically correct and it is not meant to be demeaning. All my black Z's are named one thing.
