Scoota G Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 I called mine oscar cause he's green and was a bit trashy. My other car (TA22 Celica) i called Christine after the Stephen King movie cause i bought it as a shell and then bought a front gaurd which ended up being the original front gaurd from the car... Like it was trying to come back to life. WoooOOOoooo Quote

Scando Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 I haven't named mine but a lot of other people seem to call it Kermit for obvious reasons Quote
RBZ 260 Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 well my 260z has been given few names along the way. first was : "the blue rocket" while i was rebuilding it had some visitors and as it was under cover they asked me if i was building a rocket under the cover cause it was sooooo looooong and narrow. when cover was taken off they still thought it was a rocket. i didnt like that but some friends still call it by that name even today. if all good with it i call it "the Beast" or "Frankie" (the frenkestain,pieces from this and that and its ALIVE) most times at home its refered to as simply "ZED" when its dead than i curse it and since this is PG forum i cannot write them all down but some come out like: "piece of $hit" "jap crap" "bloody dato $hitbox" "black hole" u put stuff in it and its gone for ever. but when all fixed "the beast" is back and ready to kick some arse.

sco_aus Posted May 3, 2009 Author Posted May 3, 2009 I just remembered what I have been calling it, so now it shall be official. The dim sim. I have been calling it that because a mate who has a V8 VN SS calls it the ricer and since dim sim sort of rhymes with Dastun, thats why. Quote

nuclear_z Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Lets take the "old girl", beastie, rattle monster, the inhaler (due to the fumes that sometimes come in)... Depends on how its treating me... After fixing problems I love it, when new ones come I get angry and then its the POS (Peice ofShyt) Quote
HELLFIRE! Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 When I first got my Z she was referred to as Red Zed but a friend misheard this and thought I said Roxsette. Seeing as I hate Roxsette My other half still calls her that to annoy me. Quote
