Re: nick-names for our cars

does anybody refer to their car by another name other than "the car."
Yes; our first Audi was a Pearl '90 100; hence the nickname: "Pearl"
our second was a charcoal grey/black '86 4kcsq: hence: "Blackie" or
"Schwartzie" (daughter calls this one "Ash")
our third is a laser-red '95 90cs; the story was that the dealer who
sought it out for another customer showed it and he replied, "I can't
drive that car - it's too red"; later we happened along and bought it;
hence the nickname: "Too Red"
