    Don't lie. The only Porsche you ever had was made by HotWheels. Why haven't you been online for so long? And don't blame it on some hurricane in Puerto Rico.

    Benny the smurf. “Berg” the BRG and the Sunburst was “eggs” (Eggs Benny) but it felt too contrived. Sven the Volvo. 911 Gunter.

    Currently the 92 is Smurfette. That's what the wife called her 2 days after I brought her home. Once she gets painted... that'll probably change, but don't know what to.

    My wife used to drive my 1984 Audi 5000 Avant.
    She hated all the German quirks of the car and the problems.
    She named it "Madame Gremalica".
    I installed an AMC Gremlin badge exactly like this on the dashboard!



    She now loves her older 2001 Blazer with strong air conditioning and no reliability issues. Bought it in Florida!
    Now I am driving the 84 Audi without air conditioning because it was getting too expensive fixing it every summer. I don't know why I like that POS Audi??

    Red NA called Scarlett. She’s a b*tch to spend time with...

    Purely because any time I do any work on her I spend 3x longer than I should take because of a sh*tty bolt. UK salt roads don’t help.

    My Miata is named Hasu and is Japanese for Lotus.

    quick turn to and fro
    Hasu shimmers radiant red
    always add lightness

    My NB2 earned the name Misfire, thanks to the first few weeks of ownership and the misfire issues that went on.

    Turned out to be a combination of incorrect spark plugs (brand new oem ones the dealership installed but it needed colder plugs due to the m45 installed), bad wiring connections on the power card and multiple vacuum leaks(at least half a dozen).
