Best: Ford Mustang - iconic, and Mustang is a cool animal and word

Hate to admit it, but IMO my own car's name is one of the most awkward (Buick Verano, which is the Spanish word for "summer"). Buick, IMO, instead, should have brought back the old Skylark name for its compacts...which the Verano name replaced.

Best car/name combo? I'd give to to the Dodge Charger...that's exactly what that car does, off course, with the SRT Hemi.

I'd say Dodge's entire lineup is well-named: Charger, Challenger, Viper, Dart, Journey, Durango, and Caravan.

Ford Pinto = small
Chevy Nova = no go

I'd say anything in the Infiniti lineup is the worst... G60, Q70, QX30, QX60, QX70. I own an Infiniti and don't know which cars the new names go with.

Also, the KIA K9, which thankfully became the K900 when it reached our shores. Still not an appealing name.

The F branding of Lexus is not as appealing (maybe just because it's still young) compared to AMG or M.

I know its origin and why it was chosen, but the letter F is not a positive letter in Lexus' biggest market.

I don't like the Kia K900 name. Even with the extra zeros, "K900" is too reminiscent of K9 aka canine aka dog.

X5 X drive 35i What a mouthful

The new Buick Cascada. It was a nice name until I heard them say it in the Buick commercial. They actually gave it a spanish accent, which was totally unnecessary and killed it. People would relate to the word if it was pronounced like the root of "cascade," it's original theme.

^^ every time that commercial plays, I have a hard time hearing the name and have to do a double take

nx200t sounds a bit awkward to say. They could've made the name much simpler.

Oldsmobile anything. No need for an explanation. Im guessing the name is one of the reasons GM ditched it.

I bought my first Lexus last summer and new to Lexus I looked up all the name for their meaning like "GS" stands for "Grand Sedan" IS" stands for "Intelligent Sports" "SC" stands for "Sports Coupe" and "ES" "Executive Sedan" and "LS" stands for "Luxury Sedan"
I found them to be pretty straight forward classes. But I'm convinced after reading post in the "LS" forum it stands for "Love Story". Might have to buy one in the future...

Seriously, why not just NXT? Not a great name either, but simpler and the lowercase t is a little wimpy.
