This is pretty good if we don’t say so ourselves. The crew at the Goodwood YouTube Channel decided to give us their 11 favorite car names of all time. Before you think that this will be a list 100% populated by European cars you have never heard of, you are wrong. There are plenty of American cars here as well as others from around the world. There are ones we agree with and others, like on any good list, ones that we think are a swing and a miss. Hell, there are a few that we’re kind of shocked to see at all in this video.
Naming cars has turned from a truly creative exercise to something different these days. These are not alpha-numeric collections. These are vehicles named to create an attitude and send a message. From Hammer to Syclone and even Roadrunner, they are the names that resonate with gearheads through the years and even the generations. What do you think? Dig the list? What did they forget?
AMG Hammer! Would love to own one of those. Perfect vehicle to carry three of your friends and their luggage while scaring the hell out of them with brutal acceleration.
