Naming my Red Convertable

I'm naming my red convertable, uttering names that flick into my head as i drive to try them out on her. no name has fit yet.
I need your help dear bloggers.
This is my foxy new convertable, see my past entry "Just" for her landing in my life.
She is not a Roxanne as my girl's Sarah's red car is who we for years go out in the town with, but she is a close cousin. She is foxy, yes, but she is not so fiesty as Roxanne. she is steady. she is from 1990. she has fake fur inside. she is comfy and she is a lowrider.
I thought maybe she was a Judith, because she is conquering and means business. but i think that name is too ancient for her keenness. then I though Delilah in the same damaging manner, but then i got queezy thinking of that woman "delilah after dark" on the radio who does late night love songs and i don't want that kind of competition.
Gwen may be a possibility because there is something pure and intriguing and different abou that name, but it's a little bit too easy going of a name and simple.
Names like Danny and Stevie are tempting, boyish girl names but they are too boyish, and too eeeee in the sounds which was my old cars' utterance (Athena) so i need to move away from those kinds of vowels.

So help me out dear readers, this is a name contest. who can think up the name of my car? The winner gets a ride in my car.

The name should be a somewhat common name, American, you know nothing to ancient or unrecognizable.
here's some more hints to my car's personality.
She is both boxy and long.
She is not racey be/c she has nothing to prove.
She is sassy.
She is not clingy.
She goes where she wants.
She's got a stick.
She doesn't follow "inclinations" she just goes, as if it's already happened.
She's got a deep and strong horn really makes herself known without being too overbearing.
She's a convertable with a black top. Toyota Celica
And she's not exactly girly. but she is femme. all femme.
She is daring.
She plunges right in, She goes.
She is satisfied.
With her there's never a lost cause.
She has no alter-ego, no alias. (unlike me who has about 5)
she is convicted.
She is deliberate.
