I call mine the ex wife. Because she stays at a nicer place than I do and I have to pay the rent!

Ambulance, due to the colour scheme.

This was not my choice, one of my friends named it, so it stayed.

I call it straight vannilla, since it is a really basic 924.

Interestingly the first owner named the car, and the subsequent owners have passed on the name: DART.
( I wouldn't be surprised if that's some sort of swear acronym in German)

I call the '82 Nemesis because I often find myself at odds with it. I want to get it done, but it wants to keep coming up with more things I should do to it.

Well, I call it The Black widow, due to its color, and its interior's color (Black and Red) But i like to call it the Porsche infront of every one.

I used to call mine "Old poppety-pop" before I adjusted the fuel/air mixture.
Now it's simply, "the 924".
