Ferdinand 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2001 No one mentioned Carrera. I think it's a very fitting name for the 911, after the race and all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rev. Shush 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2001 I think "corvette" is a type of ship actually yeah just looked it up, this is from webster 1 : a warship ranking in the old sailing navies next below a frigate 2 : a highly maneuverable armed escort ship that is smaller than a destroyer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeavyRightFOOT 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2001 What I like: Corvette, just sounds really cool. (named after a warship) Viper, Skyline, Firehawk, Diablo(that has to be one of the coolest ever!). I can't beleive no one mentioned the Supra. I don't know if't a word but you can obviosly relate the word to another common word, hint. It's a really creative name. Also I think Honda has a coulpe of good names like, Legend, S2000, and NSX. Again i don't know what they mean but they sound good. Names I hate are Lincoln Town Car, that sounds really corny. I think the worst name ever has to be from a late 80's Chevrolet Celebrity. Now that sucks!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurenai 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2001 Originally posted by Rev. Shush i think the japanese have a hard time naming cars in english: camry, accord, civic, corrolla, altima, sentra, imprezza.... etc. Well, Altima is often used in place of Ultima... which would make a lot more sense. Certain English letters or sounds don't translate into Japanese well, such as that case with a/u, l's and r's, and v's and b's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
