Ok, so I was trying to find the perfect name for my 2000SE. I knew "she" is special, and needed a special name...

I was inspired by Blue Belle (Thanks OBCSED). I started out with "Mahogany Belle". Nope. How about "Cherry Belle" (someone described Mahogany Mica as Black Cherry, which is about right). Then the name "Cherry" got that Steve Perry song in my head.. and VOILA!

Oh Sherrie
(Steve Perry and Randy Goodrum)

You should've been gone
Knowing how I made you feel
And I should've been gone
After all your words of steel
Oh I must've been a dreamer
And I must've been someone else
And we should've been over

Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on

But I want to let go
You'll go on hurtin' me
You'd be better off alone
If I'm not who you thought I'd be

But you know that there's a fever
Oh that you'll never find nowhere else
Can't you feel it burnin' on and on

(chorus)

But I should've been gone
Long ago, far away
And you should've been gone
Now I know just why you stay

(chorus)

Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on

So Sherrie it is! Me and Sherrie are going out for a spin. Don't tell my wife, she may get jealous...

P.S. What is your Miata's name?
