Fans often refer to the car as "the Impala" or "Baby" particularly in [[:Category:Fanfiction|fan fiction]]. When [[Sam]] is transformed into the Impala by [[Gabriel]], fans dubbed it the [[Sampala]]!
The nickname [[Metallicar]] originated on [[Television Without Pity]] on October 11, 2005 [http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3128474&st=1650&p=3763806&#entry3763806 source]. It was coined because Dean enjoys listening to classic rock music like Black Sabbath, [[Led Zeppelin]] and, of course, Metallica while driving. It became commonplace throughout fandom and has appeared on merchandise. It diminished in usage over later seasons, replaced by "Baby". Director [[Phil Sgriccia]] uses the term in the commentary for [[8.13 Everybody Hates Hitler]].
