Did you know that a group of alligators is called a congregation? Or that a group of cheetahs is called a coalition? The animal kingdom is famous for its unique collective nouns (names for a group of things).

What if we applied the same logic to the automotive world? We could borrow from the crow and call a group a Mustangs a “murder” or a group of Ferraris a “blaze”.

Give me your best ideas.

Look! A beerbelly of Corvettes!

A group of Miata drivers should be known as a flock. Like sheep.

I belive the collective noun for crows is a murder.

Here are some for inspiration:

Apparently a group of pandas is a bamboo!

So I will suggest a group of Honda civics would be a "rice patty"

I actually thought immediately of using murder for Mustangs, since they're single minded murder machines.

A broken could probably be almost any British car, but that's brilliant.

Lighten up. I wouldn’t type the word I am implying because that is just messed up to ever say/type. Anyways, I am a proud Miata driver and would gladly paint it rainbow in support of the cause.

So, you wouldn’t type the word, but you’d type the exact meaning of the word and make everyone think of the word that you meant? And how is that better?
