Another one that sort of fits in with what you’re talking about here is “Wildcat.” It sounds pretty cool until you consider the following two things:

1) a wildcat is basically the wild counterpart of an ordinary house cat; and
2) the car the name was applied to is a Buick.

One of the fastest muscle cars ever made was the Buick GS455 Stage 1. It was faster than a 'vette.

Yeah, but how many other cars can say their engines were used to jump-start SR71 Blackbirds.
