You know, I never thought about how gay that sounded until you pointed it out, it's almost on the same level as probe.

hahaha. hell yea. :) i think i already gave u reps in another post...:goodjob:

[TheProfiteer]

there are some cars that have really gay names, mostly the korean cars, (hyndia, Kia, Suzuki)

But when it comes to Japs cars, there is one name I cannot stand and thats Evolution.

I understand its a lancer, but why is it an Evolution, how the hell is it evolved?

Just because its more boosted than a raging whore on ice, does not mean its evolved.

Heck hybrids deserve to be called Evolution, alot more than the lancer.

They should of called the Mitsubishi lancer, Boost Solution.

That's fairly appropriate, because then they'd be called what they truly are: BS. :D


Here's a few of my favorites:

CRX
Holden Monaro
Vanquish
Enzo
Corvette
Legend
Prelude
Phantom
Gremlin
Mosler


And a few not-so-faves:

Enclave
Bonneville
Elantra
Rondo
Aztek
Sable
Versa
Studebaker
Blackwood
anything that has a "GT" trim line

Griffith
Cerbera
Tuscan
Tamora

:cry:
Well my point is that too many lame-ass vehicles have a 'GT' moniker (Hyundai Accent, for example) and it detracts from the true sports cars that deserve it, such as your famed McLaren.

[OneSlow5pt0]

Exige
Elise
Elan
Espirit


o and Dodge Demon

[VooDooXII]

Cadillac used to have some slick sounding names...before they hopped on the bandwagon and renamed all of their cars using only letters. That's another thing...I don't like these letter and number names...every single luxury brand seems to have done that.

Cadillac
Eldorado
Deville
Brougham
Catera

Ferrari
Fiorano
Modena
Maranello
Scaglietti

:werd:



...f*cking Korean cars.




wait... :(

[VooDooXII]

Wait...my favorite!

Volkswagen Scirocco :goodjob:

Here are some more that I thought of.

Rolls Royce Phantom
Maybach Exelero

Bentley
Continental
Flying Spur
Arnage
Azure
Brooklands

Chevrolet
Impala
Corvette
Trailblazer

Chrysler Crossfire
"Sebring" sounds nice...but the car isn't at all. Same goes for the Avenger and Stratus. Magnum's a cool name though, as is Charger.

I know I said I didn't like the letters and numbers bit...but Aston Martin has some nice names for their trim levels. Aston Martin sounds great by itself.

Volante
Lagonda
Vantage
Vanquish sounds nice too.

The GMC 'Sierra' is a dumb name for a truck though...the smaller "Canyon" sounds more aggressive than that. Also, the Lincoln Mark LT? What the hell?

Hyundai Tiburon sounds cool. Kia Rondo does not. The Euro-spec "Rondo" is called the Kia Carens. That sounds much better.

Maserati Quattroporte...what a lovely way of simply saying "four doors".

Mercury Milan and Montego...not bad.

Mini Cooper...I like.

Panoz Esperante:yes:

Saturn Sky...perfect name for a great car.

Subaru B9 Tribeca... :no:

By the way...they used "Probe" in reference to a Space Probe...I think.

the probe was gonna be the new mustang

[VooDooXII]

Yea, but then they realized that it would be blasphemous to turn the Mustang into a front-wheel-drive car.

Fiero

Dislikes: I hate Honda for not giving the S2000 a more distinctive image by giving it a better name. I love my car, but the name is so forgettable. Any series of seemingly meaningless numbers and letters almost instantly garners my contempt. Unless the car is actually great (note that the majority of my examples are cars that I like and ones that are great vehicles)
