Re: >> The official thread of Making up a new name for an all-new Chevy RWD V8 Coupe

how about Mars after a certain "Red Planet" we all know. or atleast a color called red planet. thatd be pretty cool.

Also thinking about it, Camaro closely comes from the french word for companion. Since we should be boycotting the french, we should do the complete opposite. like call it Enemy in American... so the Chevy French???

Im starting to feel a more agressive name like Ikuzo (it goes/ it can f*cking go (ive heard different things) in japanese) (although it is a homonym i am comming (and with perverted mindes replace the o with u... )) or maybe kyouteki = powerful enemy/ rival tekii =hostility/enemy


lol Chevy Tekii, has a nice ring to it

While the F4U Corsair was indeed the bad mamba jamba, Chevrolet Corsair seems to have an odd ring to me. And Ford already named their pony car after a WWII fighter

On the other hand, since a corvette is a fast warship and a corsair can mean swift pirate ship, maybe it would be the alter ego of the Vette.

If we are naming it after a racing venue, Chevy Bristol, or maybe Chevy Laguna Seca, or just the Chevy Seca.

If you are naming it after a plane, definetly call it the Chevy SR-22 or maybe the Chevrolet BlackBird pic

Somebody said Infernus. Why not just Inferno? That would be a cool name for a car.

Chevy Raptor
Chevy Falcon...too much Ford?
Chevy Hornet
Chevy Tomcat

But I like the Corsair, but it might be too close to Corvair?

Chevy Monoco,

I believe Monoco is a tiny independent country on the French Riveria.
