Here’s some other cars with strange names.
Datsun Cherry : Having it stolen is like losing your virginity.
Dodge Swinger: This is the perfect car for wife-swappers.
Mitsubishi Mirage:The car that you only think you’re driving.
Dodge Rampage: The Road-rage car.
And I’m sure with time, you could find a million of ‘em!
