Carlita? (Cars have to be female, your wife is joking about it being Mexican, Carlita is the Spanish female diminutive of Carlo.) Or if you want to go for one of those fancy showcar names, how about The Dealmaker, after that other famous Monty, Monty Hall, from Let's Make a Deal. (Oh, it's a coupe, there is no door number three.)

Hey, with those dark tint t-tops and those dark tint windows, did you ever think of throwing on some dark tint headlight covers? I'm not usually a big fan of them, and I don't know if they make them for your year, but if you found them or fabbed some up, it might really tie everything together.

That's one great looking Monte! Nice work.

I like what Im reading so far... some great ideas! I like the 'CinnaMonte' or 'SinnaMonte'?

bigvegan, I really like 'The Dealmaker' in reference to Monty Hall and Lets Make a Deal.. (door number 3, the trunk? lol) or 'The Dealer' referring to the Monte Carlo Casio in Las Vegas....

Some good things to think about... keep 'em coming if there's more out there.

Going with your wife's impression on the car, call it Chico. Maybe a male name will keep the jealous heat off a little:dunno:

I like the Monty Hall idea the best so far, "Dealmaker".

Here are my fav's so far, in no order:

- Dealmaker
- Mexican Cadillac
- MexiCarlo
- Bad 9er

- Panama Reds

Is the hood on yet? Maybe that's why I've been neglecting it.. lol..

ps. I like Monte Haul but its just a 330hp/350 crate.. the 'Haul' would be false advertisement. :geek:

"Lolita." No reason, just thought it was a cool name. Kinda goes with the mexican or spanish idea.

And check http://www.babynamenetwork.com/baby_names/origins/Spanish_baby_names.cfm
if you do want to keep it a spanish themed name, this will give you examples and meanings.

How about 'Sore D*ck'? because you can't beat it. Lol... Eh, maybe after the G-5/LSX swap I could name it that.
