R56 What is Your Car's Name?
After I photoshopped a preview of my MINI that was on order, a member on my local club board mentioned that it looked very "Stormtrooper" with the all pepper white. So he is named Jango after the "Father" of all Stormtroopers.
The wife named her's Percy. It had that British sound to it.
I thought it might be for Percy Sledge, but then again, the only thing two intrested people could do in the back seat of a MINI is discuss finding a place to make out.

i totally almost named my car after Mr. Humphries... then I thought about Mollie (sugden ie. Ms. Slocum)... i love that show...
Molly is a very tough, albeit cute, little girl -- dressed-up nicely, and suppressing an alluring growl. Because of her constitution, she handles her curves well and is always ready to go. Faster.
She got her name in Colorado. After chasing through some twisty mountain roads, we stopped at a molybdenum mine reclamation project, and, looking into the open pit, she was transfixed, as if she had discovered her roots. (Actually, it might have been the parking brake . . . ) Hence, "Molly," named after molybdenum, which alloys other metals to usefulness and incredible strength.
My affinity for Molly may be related to the fact that my own body contains approximately 0.012893600000000002 grams of molybdenum, an element which apparently is necessary to all species. Making me an alloy of her . . .
Wait, this is taking an unnatural turn . . .
It's just a name, okay?
(And please do not tell Click and Clack. They think it's crazy to name a car.)

Not quite a Stormtrooper
"Miss Blanche" is somewhere in southern California, I think. She came in on the Manon 10/16 (?). Her Pepper White is tempered with her black hood and bonnet stripes.
So glad I have found my people. I like that we name our cars.
Anyone know how long it will take the newly delivered MINIs to make it to the Bay Area?

Humm, I imagine it's obvious why
Scooter, it just seemed to become obvious as we scooted around trying to get the break in miles behind us. Scooter is a hoot to drive, we take some spirited mountain drives when the mood strikes us.
My Mini's name is Kelvin. It's named after the british scientist who developed the scale for absolute temperature. I'm a science teacher. It seemed appropriate at the time. My second choice was Brutus I'm a graduate of THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY. It just seemed overused though. I wanted something more unique.
I've been struggling with a name for my car. It has had a few dents. I like Arthur Dent from So Long and Thanks for All the Fish, but I have a good friend named Arthur who witnessed one of the dents, so it would seem a bit odd.
I guess I could name it Minnie Driver, but the car doesn't really seem feminine.
Hmm.

How about "Woody" to go with your custom *****
Is your sound-proofing and back-seat conversion done? Maybe I missed a post? An intriguing project: I'd like to know more.
