What will you call your 1series??

colonel1961 · 01-21-2008, 10:54 AM

My current BMW doesn't have a name for some reason.

My F355B is known as the 'Black Leader', only because my previous prancing stallion was the 'Grey Leader', being grigio over black, that is...

Maybe the new 128i Cv will be 'Goldfinger' since it's kinda gold in color. lol

I only think about naming a vehicle after I've had it for awhile... It always seems to me that the car will let me know what it's supposed to be named. It's not something I can force. It's just something that comes about naturally...

spudw · 01-21-2008, 01:14 PM

I'm going to name mine "Obama" :thumbup:
or maybe Hillary... :drinking:

c byle · 01-21-2008, 01:15 PM

My 1er will be the red snake. Look at those headlights and grill.:roundel:

roadraven · 01-22-2008, 10:45 AM

Naming the 1ster "Ace" for obvious reasons. Then, I'll always keep an ace of Spades somewhere in the car.

MZWIE · 01-22-2008, 01:37 PM

Kinda girly to name a car isn't it.

Bitch. My current car is also bitch. :biggrin:

Templedogg · 01-22-2008, 05:08 PM

"Monty" for a few reasons. It is Montego Blue and like a Full Monty it is sure to shock and awe the ladies when they least expect it!!!!

menotakoala · 01-22-2008, 06:19 PM

I think I'll call mine Merc. Ok Ok you're probably asking why "Merc" of all names. I'm getting Montego Blue. Montego Blue = MB = Mercedes Benz = Merc. Just so I keep those MB owners on their toes thinking why.

I will definitely be naming my car. I plan to hold off on the naming process until I have spent some time with him.

I do have to say, Otto is a fabulous name!

black3.04x4X3 · 01-25-2008, 05:36 PM

What's the matter with you guys getting Ottos? What's wrong with driving a Manuel? :wink:

I like the German theme - but I was thinking giving my car a female name - what do you think sounds good - Heidi might work --- thoughts?

randomquickness · 03-13-2008, 07:29 AM

MZWIE · 03-13-2008, 07:53 AM
