A young lad saw me approaching my car today and stopped me to tell me it was "whip".

He was smiling, so I assume that's a good thing :dk::D.
 
HAHAHA wee guy came up to me and said "that's a stoater big man"
( Glaswegian for awesome )
 
Haha my Daughter wants me to pick her up from school in 'The German Whip' she told me ! Something in a song that must be out at the moment I think?..
 
Whip (slang for a car) has been a term used amongst African American bretheren since at least the 1950's.
 
The daughter's boyfriend calls our SL the whip.

I had to ask as well.
 
Whip just means car, but said like that it's a good thing! 'German whip' song has been around for years now. "Catch me driving a German whip, blacked out windows leaning back" yes, when I bought an Audi at the time it was on repeat :D :fail:
 
You out in ya Whips this weekend lads...? Myself... I'm gunna wash and polish the whip, then cruise in the Whip all Bank holiday !
 
I thought the whip was kept in the bedroom, you learn something new everyday....lol
 
When I bought the Alfa 166 it had "Italian whip" on the rear screen in yellow stickers, well it did for about 20 minutes. Glad to now know what it means, a 166 would be an optimistic whip so to speak
 
Never heard of it before.

Mind you, I don't move in many social circles amongst African American...
 
I was once called a 'Cossie bad man' when filling up my 2.3-16 with petrol, by a total random stranger filling up his car next to mine.
I just replied, err, yes, thanks and carried on filling up.
