The white car (924S), the blue one ('70 F-100), and the silver one (the Celica). I call the Porsche the project car half the time, I get less funny looks from people when I just don't say what it is unless they ask. It's just "the project car I'm fixing the head on."

It's in the sig...

When I bought it, my mother said "Not another bloody sports car, you'll kill yourself in that thing!" And so it was named...

Known to my mates as "The Audi-with-a-Porsche-Badge" or just "The Porker".

I call mine "the project car", keeps my Ex off my back.
My son calls it the "sports car", as in Dad, can we take the sports car? I always have to say, Yes.

After a run thru the twisties, as I get ready to leave the car, I pat her on the dash and say "Thanks old girl".

So I guess mine is called "Old Girl".
