Problem with car names is you can't have one somebody else has used as they own the rights.
Spartan already out there

UC3PO - that "star wars" kid in the video will buy one

the "Woot" - kinda the sounds you make when driving it fast and linking back to the founder of UCP

Go with the 3-seats I'd suggested and call it the UCP Graiae and it only comes in grey. ( three sisters of the Gorgons in Greek mythology ).
Pronounce it with a strong GR to make the car sound powerful

Or Demetra or Demeter - Greek 'the pure nourisher of youth' sums up UCP

I didnt quite get what you said about the starwars kid (who's talent with a staff i envy )... but why would you want it to be called demeter, there are much more impressive gods out there.

Showing my nerdy star-wars upbringing
C3PO was the gold computer that walked around and irritated the hell out of everybody Hence Uc3po

First because of the relevance to the value of UCP as a forum.
Secondly, ALL the good ones are taken or 'pencilled-in' TVR have all the powerful ones tied up neatly
Maybe we shoudl just call it GOD, the one and only true supercar

Demeter is also the goddess of peace and serenity. We don't want that now, do we Matra?

How about the "Tantrum"? - Although that won't give it a very good ring reliablity-wise

I like the idea of naming it after Greek or Roman gods. I'm sure Matra will want to call it Bacchus
