It occurred to me one day: \u201cDo Porsche owners give their cars names?\u201d<\/strong> Most people probably call their cars by their model names, but I wonder if some give them pet names, too.<\/p>\n I once tried to come up with a name for the Panamera we have now.<\/p>\n I thought giving it a name might make it feel even more like \u201ca trusty companion.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n A Porsche already feels like a close companion. If I had to compare it to a pet, I\u2019d say it\u2019s more like a dog than a cat\u2014racing through life and along winding roads right beside its driver. I figured a name might make us feel even closer, so I brainstormed a few possibilities.<\/p>\n \u201cPorschey\u201d?<\/span><\/p>\n Hmm, not quite. I wanted something inspired by the Panamera, not Porsche in general.<\/p>\n \u201cPana-Pana\u201d?<\/span><\/p>\n \u2026Nope. That just sounds silly. Besides, it might depend on whether I imagined the Panamera as male or female. The more I thought about it, the less I could settle on a name. In the end, I landed on:<\/p>\n \u201cMr. Pana.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n It feels like a trusted companion, but also a slightly senior one\u2014and it works whether the car is a guy or a girl. So:<\/p>\n \u201cMr. Pana.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n I have no idea whether the Panamera likes the name. And since I usually just call it \u201cthe Panamera,\u201d naming it hasn\u2019t really changed anything\u2026 But anyway, here\u2019s to many more miles together, my trusty companion!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Name for Your Porsche It occurred to me one day: \u201cDo Porsche owners give their cars names?\u201d Most people probably call their cars by their model names, but I wonder if some give them pet names, too.
