He should name it “Dorothy” and then change it to “Snot”. So when someone asks, “Is your car named Dorothy?” he can respond, “No, it’s not.” (No, it’s Snot). Snort snort. ---

how about “top hat”…it implies fancy and good looking…and occasions to use/wear it are not as often as you might like due to mechanical issues/mechanics with boat payments? ---

Name her Delizioso! I own a 1981 Fiat Spider, white with tan leather. I’ve had her for 21 years and the only problem I ever had was a bad ignition sw. I love my Spider. I dated my wife in this car and now my children (ages 8, 5, &2) love to go for rides. When I’m with a passenger, we cruise and enjoy clear blue skies, alone, I push her hard. Please, this car deserves respect. Anybody who has ever had problems with a Spider never had open communication with the the car. Frank Polizzi, Chicago, IL ---

my dad had a FIAT spider I don’t remember the year it was but I don’t think that he named his but it was a beauty until a tornado destroyed it. it was orange with a clear coat finnish. the car was the only car that had a maual choke. As I remember the back seat was a joke. I think that Tommy should name the car the same name as his wife. ---

So Tommy went from a fine classic MGTD to a Fiat??? What an idiot. He has just lost three levels of my respect. Reminds of a line from some old movie, I forget which. “If he’s such a modern boy, why does he drive a car from the OLD COUNTRY”???
