Was smoking downstairs when one of our managers joined us. They were discussing about a client being impressed with their presentation earlier this week and I suggested to one of the exec using his new LANCER which he got at a bargain price to impress the client further when he goes to meet the client on the next meet.
"You should mentioned about this earlier, then I would have bought my Franky today" - Manager
"Franky?" I blurped.
"My Frankenstein"
He named his modded wira(with a 1.8 turbo GSR), 'Franky'.
Duh.
Then I started thinking about my car...
"Mine's called 'Archie'"
"Archie??" - Manager
"It's old, rattles, hums and a bone-shaker, just like Archie's jalopy" - I explained, it's actually just a wira.
"Ahh, good name" - Manager
Examples:
Cars with only one working front head lamps - Jasin
Cars buried in landslides - Toyo
Cars which parked double parking spaces and about to be summon - Kudus or Kayveas
Cars with fully tinted glass - Badawi
Old abandoned cars grazing at fields - Rafidah
Cars driven by mostly women - Gilmore Girls
A car that aspires to be more than its worth - Akademi Fantasia, Malaysian Idol, One in a Mill, etc.
Cars that rejects its owners - PDRM
Wrecked cars that attempts to make a comeback after some major over-hauls - Anwar
We should all name our cars. Gives that old metal junk a personality it deserves.
Fun stuff.
