Illegitimi Non CARborundum Est

Remember when cars had tough, macho names--Mustang, Maverick, Corsair and, yes, even Cordoba (with "reech, Coreenthian leather")? Well, nothing says "2010" more than the name of Nissan's new electric vehicle. It's called--wait for it--the Leaf.

How...green.

With that in mind, here are a few suggestions for other car names that would be in tune with the times:

• the Ford Diversity
• the Honda Dhimmi
• the Chrysler Mini-Wimp Van
• the Subaru Gore
• the Hyundai Grovel
