Guest arni Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 There was the Hyundai Pony.Sounds innocent enough unless you are a cockney from London's east end..The cockney rhyming makes it some what different though.Pony is short for pony and trap=######!! So it was a Hyundai ######...
my name is nobody Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 The last time I went to town (Billings Montana) I saw a vehicle named "Ascender". which my wife pronuonced as Ass Ender. I laughed so hard, I almost did. I wonder what an F350 + Ascender would look like? (maybe a booty baby! )
Craig Irwin Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Doesn't the Lambo "Countash" mean something like "Oh My God" or "What The He##" ?
Modelmartin Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Wartburg. They were beautiful cars... but isn't that the most unappealing name you ever heard? Those were East german, I think. The Czechs have a car by the name of Skoda( Stiil do although it's a division of VW now) and they had a car called a Felicia. I have a sales brochure for it that reads "Have you met Felicia?" on the cover. It's actually a cool brochure and a pretty normal looking car. They also had a model called the Octavia. Hold the presses. I just looked at Wikipedia and Skoda is still using those names today! Also in their model line-up is the Fabia! I wonder if Fabio drives one. The best one is the MPV they call the "Roomster". Also in the line-up is an SUV called the Yeti.
Modelmartin Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Top half or bottom? oy vey... Oy is right! Actually it is the egg half. Sperm half is pure WASPiness.
Harold Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 The Lada "Black Russian Cossack". I find it funny that two of the Edsels series names turned into duds when used by AMC (Pacer) and Chevrolet (Citation). Or how about the Hudson Wasp (preferred 2 to one over other cars by rich upper crust whites), Packard Patrician (for real snobs), Studebaker Scotsman (for penny pinchers- don't worry- there's some of that in me), or how about AMC and Chevy hanging the name "Classic" on a run of the mill sedan?
Harold Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Studebaker had lots of crazy names for their cars. Of course there was the Commander, President, Dictater series. Dick Tater? Is that Mister Potato Head's country cousin?
