THE LIST of bad names was compiled by Steve Harvey of the L.A. Times in honor of an auto show in Anaheim.

1. Ford Focus, partly because I found the initial out-of-focus billboards so irritating.

2. Volkswagen Golf (Is it a car or a cart?)

3. Dodge Prowler ("Honey, look at the Prowler in the driveway!"

4. FORD PROBE (a name only a physician would love)

5. Ford Edsel (auto-dom's all-time flop, named after the founder's son)

6. Chevy Avalanche (Burying the owner in payments?)

7. Oldsmobile Intrigue (Can you ask someone to ride in your Intrigue while keeping a straight face?)

8. GMC Jimmy (A toy car?)

9. Chevy Nova (One Spanish translation: "It won?t go."

10. GMC Impact electric car (Johnny Carson asked, "What?s next? The Ford Whiplash?"

I like the Prowler. It's a good name for the kind of vehicle it is, IMO.

 

1. Ford Focus- Focus on how f*cking ugly that piece of **** is.
2. Toyota Celica- The word screams my car was named after a girl.
3. Ford Tarus- Great to have a car named after on of the slowest creatures on earth.
4. Toyota Echo- No need to repeat how it is even more ugly than the ford focus.
5. Honda Prelude- Doesn't lude mean toilet? I wish that piece of s*it gets flushed down the toilet! smile.gif
6. Honda Insight- I don't know about insight, I can't stand to look it at!
7.Honda Civic- For obvious reasons smile.gif

 

lol...nice!

Gee let me guess...you don't like Honda or Toyotas??? lol.

 

Hrm...drawing from the last time this post came up. wink.gif

Chevy Citation. uhh....this is a good thing?

Chevy Celebrity. no one with fame would ever touch that POS.

Colt / Pony. Don't little girls want one of these when they're nine?

Ford Focus. Ironic that the car looks cross-eyed.

Jeep Liberty. It's a 1:1 scale Matchbox toy.

PT Cruiser. They just weren't trying when they named this one.

Aspire / Protege. Words that mean "good potential, but not quite there."

Excursion. Word implies aimless wandering, like a Sunday afternoon drive. If you're going out for a Sunday jaunt, you'd probably want better than 4 mpg.

Ford Festiva. The Saturday Night Live commerical skit about the a new car company from Mexico, the Adobe, comes to mind.

And last but not least...the Tiburon. No, just kidding. The Zephyr. A small breeze. You get about as much power out of this vehicle as you would a good Tex-Mex fart. tongue.gif

 

Stay away from Jessica Alba..she's mine.

 

Hey I like the jeep liberty.

 

Ford Aspire- Aspire to trade that piece of s*it in for something else! smile.gif

Volkswagon Thing- No wait a minute, I like the thing, the name is a diffrent story.

Suzuki Esteem- I guess a person can hold their head up with pride while driving one. smile.gif

 

Volkswagon THING???? Never heard of it. Any pics of what it looks like?
