“Dart” reminds me of “darter”, a kind of fish. So I’m going to suggest you name it “Piranha” because it will bleed you dry!

Color is usually important when naming a car. Can’t tell for sure from this picture but it looks like it might be blue. Mix that with a 60s era automobile and I come up with 'Blue Velvet". Those old Dodge Darts used to run pretty smooth as I recall.

You could name it ‘Darter Snail’ and maybe get it protected under the Endangered Species Act.

Nah, NOT “SLEEK BLACK BEAUTY”! It’s a DARTRA. Can only be a DARTRA!

It may be black, that’s true. I disagree with “Sleek”; sleek suggests speed. I drove a pseudoDart (Scamp) for years. Darts and the concept of speed are not compatible. It’s one or the other with this model.

Name it “aftayou”  
Tommy can tell all his dates about his beautiful car that he named “after you” (works for your boat also)

The Green Hornet’s car was Black Beauty. I don’t think that fits a Dodge Dart, even if it is black. How about Atlatl? That’s a dart-thrower used by Australian aborigines.

Dodge Dork

That name was justifiably applied to a slightly later model Dart owned by a friend long ago. No copyright was filed on the name as I recall.

How about something chic and cosmopolitan like “Cart D’Arte”.
