And the winner is...(fanfare)...

All right, all right, somehow in the midst of studying for my (one) exam, I've managed to find time to judge the car naming competition! There have been a number of good entries. Melissa's suggestion of 'Blue Steel' was apt since he IS blue, steely and really really good looking! But unfortunately, she decided to name one her fish that, and we can't have two things in the same family with the same name! It would be too confusing. Nat's entry of 'Joey' from NKOTB also came very close since he WAS my favourite and at some stage I had a plan to marry him one day (what happened?).
'Tim Junior' was never really an option...'Wazza' made me laugh and 'Nemo' was cute. I also just thought of 'Ferris' (yes I am a true child of the late 80s/early 90s). Sadly however, there can only be one winner and taking into consideration that it is a Japanese brand car and it will (hopefully) be transporting me from place to place (but not through time!), the winner is indeed Hiro, named after Hiro Nakamura from the TV show Heroes:

Congratulations Kev! What will it be? A Mars bar? Twix? Bounty? I'll even personally deliver it to you in Singapore!!! Quoting Hiro: Yatta!!!!!!
