Top 5 funny nicknames given to Porsche

5 interesting Porsche nicknames decided by Porsche

Porsche announces the TOP 5 of "Funniest Nicknames".

There are various Porsche models that have their own nicknames, but among them, Porsche chose five as interesting.

If you like Porsche, you can imagine that this is "the first place is that" even before you see it ^ ^, but for the time being, I would like to see it from the fifth place in order.

5th place: Porsche 356 B 2000 GS Carrera GT

The Carrera GT is not the Carrera GT that comes to mind, but this is a unique model that is a little strange, and the nickname given is "Triangular Scraper".

The base of this model is 356, and it is said that it is made of a redesigned aluminum body.

The original name and aesthetics given to this car was derived from Porsche's desire to participate in GT races, and it seems that it is a very important model for Porsche as well.

4th place: Porsche 935/78

The nickname given to this car is one of the famous ones. Its nickname is "Moby Dick".

The most powerful race car based on the Porsche 911, with a long nose and high tail.

From the appearance, it seems that the name of the white whale of the novel "Moby Dick" by American novelist Herman Melville has permeated as the nickname of this model.

According to the reported story, the mechanics of this car's race team came up with this nickname ^^

3rd place: Porsche 904/8

The third place was the Porsche 904/8 model whose nickname is "Kangaroo".

I never knew there was a Porsche nicknamed Kangaroo.

The reason why this car was named Kangaroo is that it runs while jumping from the imbalance between the power unit and the chassis.

It seems that Porsche thinks that it does not have a very good meaning, but even so, this nickname of kangaroo seems to be a lovingly given nickname.

2nd place: Porsche 718 W-RS Spyder

The second place was the Porsche 718 W-RS Spider model. It looks like a Porsche 718 Spider, but it's a different model.

This spider model looks cool!

… But the nickname given to this model is really…

"Grandmother"! !!

Eh ~. It's a grand mother, grandma. It seems to be fast with such a spider model, and it looks amazing. How cool is your grandma?

I've never heard of this nickname, so why is it called by that name at first? I was wondering, but when I asked why, I was a little convinced.

The reason is that this model has been in the race for a long time.

Since the 718 was a very competitive model, it was used from 1961 to 1964 and has won famous races.

Therefore, a grand mother who praises such achievements. Hmmm, but I think it doesn't feel right. Very cool grandma ^^

1st place: Porsche 917/20

By the way, the prestigious first place is! !!

Yes, I think that there were many people who thought that this was "that's right", but the model that won the first place is the Porsche 917/20.

You can see it by looking at this figure. Yes, its nickname is "Pink Pig".

This race car, which won the Le Mans, is very unique with a design that outlines the pork parts.

However, people love the novel pork design that is too unique and the pink body like the lovely salmon pink.

This car is sometimes called "Sow", which means "female pig".

U. It feels pitiful to be called that way, but anyway, this is treated as a girl ^^ After that, it is also called Verda.

It's so cute, and with a design that has an unforgettable impact once you see it, you can see that this pink pig is chosen as the most interesting Porsche nickname that Porsche chooses.
