Need help naming my Car

[endlsskys]

Hi NB gang

I just bought a Salsa Red 2007 Brand New beetle with 70 miles on last week it almost has 900 now because of my Drive from NM to Dallas TX. Anyways I need to think of a name. My nickname online is endlsskys my itinals are JLH and the year i was born is 1979 favorite color is blue. I really want to get a custom plate means I am going to have this car for 5 years due to the fact I need to get out of being upside down that is why I went with a brand new beetle. It has package 1 I really wanted package 2 but they didn't have any instock or the 2008 version were on back order.

Can anyone tell me how to make sound system better. It has a monsoon system never had one seem the base is too high or the treble is high I can't get it adjusted just right.

Thanks
Jesse

Well when I think of a red bug I think Ladybug. The name is probably taken, but it makes so much sense.

I need to name my car too. I want a custom license plate, but I haven't been able to decide what to put on it. I was thinking either my name or I have no idea. Help!!

My car is green.
My favorite colors are pink and green.

What I have come up with...

BRGETTE- I have to take the I out.
TURTLE- LACK OF IMAGINATION
BRIE- eh
Sunshine?--- its too long and thats for yellow!! PPL call me that.
hand(the hand)L THIS
star(the star)LIGHT
heart(the heart)LY BEE or Lovely Brie
BUBBLES

ok, i need suggestions...
Thank You!!

LOL...it took about 8 months for mine to tell me

So don't feel bad if it takes awhile for right name to present itself.

That's what I'm thinking, too. I tried forcing it for a few years, sort of referring to the car as Beetlemania, or maybe The MaxiPod with Wings when I was at car shows, but it never really felt right. Then last year I finally learned that he's Paul McCARtney, the Beetle in wings!

Do we really need to name our cars ?

Be your own cat. If you don't name your bug, that's you.

I've always had a name for my cars- bugs or otherwise. I revert back to my youth when pops would drive the 66 Chevy station wagon and call it Betsy. I'd always hear pops and my uncles refer their cars as 'she'- it's not unusual; you even hear car commercials and movies today, where the cars are....heh, I think you know what i'm talking about- common knowledge For me, all the more with the uniqueness and the vibe of the Beetle that naming my car was fitting.

Some think it might be silly, but let's not be ignorant to the fact that people naming their cars are pretty much a part of Americana as car shows and weekend cruises.

Well said

It's true--my first NB took several months before she told me her name, but it only took a few weeks with my new NB.. One day it'll just hit you Punkin and Sparky's names just sort of slipped out randomly..then it hit me "she just told me her name!"

[gilligan]

I called mine Beeble until she told me her name was Cherry.

Now I find out she's some kind of psychotic crazy broad who cant seem to keep it under 90 when were on the highway!!!!

It's not just a beetle thing. It's a car thing. My old CRX was Emy this car is Chip. The car tells you. Sometimes it takes longer to hear but they do tell you.

i have to agree every vehicle i had told me its name at some point. i had cammy (short for chamelion) she was a cadilac version of christine....she would start if she liked you stall if she didnt....radio would adjust to your mood...etc. i had betsy an old dodge ram pick up truck....she was old and crotchity lol. my nb herbie well cuz he looks like herbie although my new tags will say magpie....he has all the attitude of "magpie" lindsay lohan in fully loaded...so i think herbie just told me he is really a she and magpie lol

The I should rename mine to "glad I bought a extended warranty"

My new 2007 is Storm, because it looks like a
Star Wars Storm Trooper. So use your car,
its made in Mexico so name it "Salsa", or
Red Hot Bug, you know something like that.
Also is it a boy or girl?
