De AssSister.
That's my name for my disaster, only made it 10 + miles before wacking it into a overpass in the rain.





Got the front suspension changed a week ago, (left lower control arm)
now I'm changing the left rear lower control arm. Seems its towed out a mite...

Got a replacement tail light from Noga this week, now I get to start beating on the L 1/4 panel to get it to fit...

At work they call it the million dollar bimmer, just because I always have one of the quirks to fix. At him its either the other wife or the girlfriend.

I named mine Ms. Rosenrot. Even though it's hellrot color, it sounds like a proper name for a German car. Plus it has its theme song Rosenrot from Rammstein. It was the song I was listening to when I came across the car for sale, ironic, so I consider it a coincidence that was meant to be! Before every event I run, I listen to that song to kind of connect me with the car on a personification level. Man + machine + musical conduit= driving enlightenment. I suggest everyone acquire a song for their car, it's a unique connection. Sonne would be another good name, also by Rammstein, they make great songs for German cars. Was sie will bekommt sie auch! "whatever she wants she gets!", perfectly put.
PS: If you have a "crappy" BMW, you could name it Mein Teil, straight translated as "my part", but in Germany it's "My piece"...so it can be "your piece"...of...

How about I call my car "Steely McBeam"?
No, that would be too rude to the fine car that the 318ti is.
I consider the McBeam mascot one of the worst ideas I've ever heard of or seen. Any Steeler related name ideas?
