Bianca sounds more like a white car to me, it reminds me of snowy Russia or something I do like Claire though.

I have always named my cars, since I had my first. My Dad did the same thing, he says.

My last pickup truck-- '05 Silverado single cab, chromed out, modified, even added a sunroof-- was named the Hell Bitch, after the white horse in Lonesome Dove that only Call could ride.

I'm not concerned with the money I've put into it. I knew going into it that I'd never get half the money back that I put into it. I did it for fun and because I could at the time.

The Whipple doesn't whine like a centri or Maggie with a rear cog drive. It's much more subtle.

it's weird i'm sentimental, but i've never been that way about cars. i've never really reminisced about cars i've owned or thought about them when they were gone. just a machine. love it when i have it, but still a machine.

Yeah. I guess I'm a little sentimental. This car was a goal since I started college. I said I'd have one when I graduated.. And I got it.

It's kinda a way of saying I accomplished a goal
