Do you think this car is named after Queen Victoria? It wasn't there! This name was given to the car because of the generous trim that encircles the roof and pillars - the so-called “crown”. Many Americans associate this car with a police car because it was on the basis of the Victoria that all official cars of that time were produced and this tradition has not changed for many years.

9. Fiat 125S Coupe Vignale Samantha

As you can see, the fashion for women's names for cars was specially developed in the 60s in America. But that's why this Fiat was so named so no one knew. Who was this Samantha?

Rather, the rare Fiat was a very frisky "car" with an exclusive design. In total, only about 100 of these cars were produced, so Samantha is still a rare thing!
