I'm not sure if vehicles can be renamed. You can add vehicles with custom names but I have never heard of it being possible to rename a car.

iv seen it on, on youtube vids. ingame name is changed

With the GTA San Andreas GXT Editor you can open the american.gxt and search for the vehicle then change it's entry to whatever you want.

NOTE: I know its for GTA SA but it opens the GTA IV fxt files perfectly.

NOTE2: American.gxt file is located at C:Program FilesRockstar GamesGrand Theft Auto IVcommontext

Okay, I see now. There is a pre-edited file on GTA garage here that someone made but if you want your own names then use the program Tom linked.

i have x gtx editor v2.2 but iv nvr used it idk how does tht work?
