I was thinking about how clever the transformation of “Mark Sinclair” to “Vin Diesel”* is and now I want to know what your automotive-themed stage name would be. I’ve got dibs on “Sandy Apex!” Yes, you can use these names for “other” avenues of work. Gotta pay those University debts some kind of way, amiright?
*(Vehicle Identification Numbers are “marks” and Sinclair is an oil company famous for the dinosaur-themes of their gas stations).

We should create once of those stupid Facebook “What’s your super hero name?” chains with automotive themed words. Something like...
If your first name begins with J, your first name would be Axle. If your last name begins with S, your last name would be Turbo.
Just need 52 name-sounding automotive words (alternator is not a name-sound automotive word) and attach them to letters randomly.

Or one tied to your birthday, like first name + month you were born in.

I’m hoping someone is inspired to put in the effort, for I am not that man.

Also possible, but then one of your names would be limited to just 12 options. I think we’d end up with a lot of similar names.

Technically, my stage name is Miss Mercedes...at least until I legally become a Mercedes.

Fact: A Mercedes isn’t a Bra-bus until after a shopping trip.
Couldn’t resist an old, old, old joke. Im sorry.

I don’t think “Hairpin Swaybar” would improve my Hollywood chances much.

Oily tears, burning wallet, exploding pump, sagging suspension. All things that fit my car.

Muahahahahahahaha!! You know when I wrote that, I thought “I wonder how easily that could be taken out of context?” :)
I can totally imagine going up to a judge and saying “I believe I’m a human that should have been born a car, can I have a VIN plate?”

Hieronymus Bosch.
It’s multifaceted! Bosch makes lots of parts in my Mercedes.
And his vivid depictions of both heaven and hell perfectly capture the moment to moment dichotomy of owning a V-12 with higher performance than a Ferrari 575 and a suspension with insufficient design consideration for reliability.
Terrestrial Paradise - Firing on all 12 cylinders, no check engine lights, pulling from 80 to 120 in no time flat.
Hell - dash lit up like a Christmas tree, catastrophic hydraulic pump failures, fiber optic network faults, coilpack hiccups, and fuel delivery issues.
