I got a pretty new Nissan Versa.  This car is far more tricked out than my previous cars have been; it has a built in bluetooth that talks to me & I don't need a key for the door or egnition.  In honor of this I really want to name my car something that is an homage to science fiction as I feel this car is straight out of a sci-fi movie.
The possibilities:
- HAL - Yes, the talking computer from 2001: A Space Oddysey that tries to kill all of the astronauts on the ship.  This one may have been vetoed already as it is witty, but ultimately kind of creepy.
- KIT - That's right, and I like the version voiced by Mr. Pheeney from the orignal Knight Rider tv show.  The alternate names of KNIGHT RIDER and KNIGHT VERSA have been proposed.
- LOGAN - in honor of Logan's Run.  I haven't seen this film, so for me I think it would be more of an homage to Free Enterprise and you have to be a true geek to get that one.
- HIRO or ANDO - Durring season one of Heroes Hiro Nakamura transports into the future and recieves a copy of 9th Wonders where he is the star and driving a blue Nissan Versa.  So what does he do?  He goes back and when he and Ando come to America he insists on renting a blue Nissan versa just like in the comic.
- XANDER - I just thought of this one and it makes me smile. I have no idea how my car could be an homage to Buffy the Vampire Slayer but I would love it if it was.
Suggestions?
