Let me guess.
You called your car Twinkie the Wonder Car, because it was yellow and you thought it was wonderful.
You called your old car Darth Sidious because he had black paint with white stripes and you liked SW?

Not really personifying them, as both a Twinkie and Sidious aren't really human.
Talking to and yelling at a car like it's alive is personifying it, though, as well as giving it a personality 😄

Wrong on both counts! Well, partially wrong on the second, anyway.
Twinkie got that name because one of my friends said it reminded her of those old Twinkie commercials where an animal would think some inanimate object was a Twinkie. I'm actually not sure what color the car it, it goes between silver, gold, and a mix of the two, depending on how you look at it and the light.
Darth Sidious was a beat up Ford Escort that used to be my aunt's car and was my first one, and was named as such because it was old and evil and I was convinced trying to kill me. That and I love Star Wars 😛
