I don't really have a particular name for my car, but my friends commonly refer to it as:

The "Trans Am"

They think it sounds like one.

They'd love it if I painted mine to look like this:

Any others?

As i was running Route 66, i stopped for soome gas, and an old cowboy (70's? 80's?) in his old Ford Pickup, who was just finishing fueling up, bellowed out: "what the hayell kind of spaceship is that?"

That is freakin hilarious - I know what they mean!

wonder what it is about the car that is doing that....she didnt see the DRLs, so it wasnt that.

A couple of my girlfriends call it The Batmobile.
