I go by the unofficial rule that female-owned cars are male, and male-owned cars are female. Naming a car might sound really lame or weird to many of you, but I have always felt a personal attachment for my automobiles and like to take care of them. As such I typically will designate a name to each one. However I've yet to name my A3 - I haven't thought of a name that suits her. I have 5,000 miles on it and I'm slowly trying to decide.

My '96 Explorer was named Sally (because it used to have subs and my friends and I would always play that 2 Live Crew song Sally (That Girl) as a joke, and it kind of stuck).

Do you fellow A3 owners have names for your rides?

 

Charlene...I'll let you figure out the movie reference

Without me, my A3 is useless
Without my A3, I am useless

Go Sox

 

Called my '89 white Jetta "Oatmeal". Haven't come up with a name for my '06 black A3.

 

My wife and I have been thinking of a name for a while, but haven't come up with a good one yet. I'll post back when we do!

I call mine "ROJO"

 

Although I do not actually use the name, I named my my A3 "Wilma". The day I was supposed to pick it up from the dealer, after several weeks wait ( I ordered it ), we were hit by the hurricane Wilma in South Florida. I finally got it two weeks later.

 

It's engraved on my wallet.

 

Mine is Lucky... when i'm parking it outside most of the time i have to clean the birds p00p of the paint. I solved the problem working half a day to organize the garage so now is safe inside .

 

I liked to call my first car, (a 98 ford ranger) the road skank or skank for short. Mostly because she sucked up alot of money in gas andrepairswhile all in all a sloppy drive. I havent had put much thought into a name for myA3 though.

 

Sometimes I name the nav voice prompts. In a Jag we used to have, it was Money Penny. In the A3 or A4, it's either "Hey Lady" or "Jane," as in "you ignorant ****."
