At least one computer keyboard key shares its name with a popular vehicle. Do you know? Are here any others? @It_s-Me says “F1” but that’s a stretch. F1 isn’t the name of a car so much as the name of a car racing series. I’m giving the sol’n to @davesmopar, “Escape”! Congrats. There’s a book titled with “Cap” in the name, but no car named “Cap” as far as I know. ---

Shift Clearly, it was named after the famous _Suzuki Shift_! 😁 ---

The McLaren F1 is one of the greatest road cars ever built, better than a Bugatti Veyron/Chiron, in my opinion. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/7/f/7f2d4923fbce62fa98f313415999d48996c1b6b6.jpeg) ---

And let us not forget the greatest of all road cars, the Datsun F10! ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/d/b/db21a98f22af576fca31e521dab1b1e476d5bcbb.jpeg) ---

Don’t forget the Models T and A. Escape was first, and IMO @davesmopar deserves a hearty huzzah. I doubt that @George_San_Jose1 is offering anything else. ---

Might as well ad 3 and 6, for the Mazda 3 and Mazda 6 ---

hmm … I don’t think of “3” being that car’s model name. To me "Mazda 3 " is the model name, so technically it would be Mazda’s Mazda 3. It’s a personal preference of course. Just likewhat some call the Smart Car, others just refer to it as the “Smart”. ---

Mazda is the Make, 3 is the Model, I or Speed or S as well as Sport, Touring, Grand Touring etc are the sub models… ie Mazda 3I-- Mazda 3S Mazda had the 323, 626, and then just dropped down to single digit Model numbers… Just some examples… ---
