[KendoNagasaki]

Bluedicrous

“A Fine Disregard for Inconvenient Facts” with a hat-tip to Iain M Banks it does fit well with Tesla and Elon

 

[Mr H]

Seraph - from The Matrix

 

[Mallikanth]

Midnight Silver (Grey to everyone else) with White interior - So naturally going to call it 'Greyson'.

Can’t decide between Evie (EV obviously) and Joshua (Global Thermonuclear War)

Telstar

Telstar is very meaningful for me as a symbol of the future. I am just old enough to remember the first live transatlantic TV broadcasts. As a young boy I sat staring at some blurry black and white images from America and hearing that this was possible because this amazing sci-fi device had been sent into space on a rocket and was now orbiting the earth bouncing TV signals! After that I had to believe anything was possible. Some adults told us that these foolish Americans were now wasting their time and money trying to send men to the moon ... some hope, they said. The Tesla represents that technical optimism, a readiness to make the future happen!

Inspired by the satellite a sci-fi instrumental music track by The Tornados called Telstar got to the top of the charts. I can now drive along in my Tesla Telstar listening to the Tornados!

.... And the other thing is, when I try to type quickly I often mess up the letters in Tesla so I'm halfway to Telstar already!

I used to work in a building called Telstar House, opposite Paddington Station in London. Guess when it was built?

My choice is Joshua. Cool reference.

Tina as in Tina (Head) Turner

So my little Tesla is called The Falcon, after said super fast ship in Star Wars, since it can do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs

..and next millenium FSD might work...

Attitude Adjuster after a ship from the Culture - a series from Iain M Banks

Laser Teeth (ie 'Tesla Three')

...a bit of fun, few more anagrams. For some reason old fashioned American names appear a lot...

Tesla Three: Ethel Aster, Hester Teal
Model Three: Dermot Heel, Ethelred M (...Ohm Deleter)
My Tesla: Elma Sty (...Sly Mate)
Tesla Model Three: Adelle Thermoset, Ethelred Maltose (...& Molested Leather !)
My Model Three: Delmore Thyme, Meredeth Mylo, Emmery Tholed
My Tesla M Three: Elmer Amethyst (...& Mayhem Settler.....Sham Telemetry !!)

Model Three SR Plus: Roshelle Dumpster
Model Three LR: Dermot Heller, Meredeth Roll (...TESLA Model Three LR: Stealth Remodeller)
Model Three P: Ethelred Mop, Homer Pelted, Pedro Helmet

(TESLA Model Three P: Estell Trophedema, Helmeted Polestar !!, Lethal Pedometers & for those interested in leasing...Leasehold Tempter !)

 

[MadScientist]

My shortlist (for when I get it that is):

Serenity
CRM 114

The latter a tribute to the great director

 

[RigelRVA]

Our blue model Y will be known as Rigel.

"Rigel is the brightest and most massive component... of a star system of at least four stars that appear as a single blue-white point of light to the naked eye."

Although Stitch was a close second!

 

[Cnixon]

My courtesy car from Heathrow SC is renamed "Last Chance" because my Model 3 P is getting its paint redone for third time. If its not right when I collect it getting put in the lease companies hands.

 

[RossBrindleyAU]

I decided on Mooncake.

Mooncake is a character on the animated show "Final Space". The character is sweet and helpful and lovable but also has the ability to destroy a galaxy.

This aligns with the way I think of my Tesla. It is a wonderful and delightful car that is always ready to help, but also has the ability to destroy just about every other type of car.

 

[Altes]

Kamakiri...Very few will get the reference

 

[MichaelP90DL]

My beloved 2015 Model S P90DL -- "Tessie" -- has been sold. Next car will be a new MS Raven Performance. Am thinking about "Tessie II" or "Raven."

Obviously put a lot of thought into that -lol !
You could have gone with 'car' or 'I can't believe it's not plaid'
