While some folks have suggested using string replace functions on the 
incomming data, I beg to differ.

Text values like that aren't meant for name fields.  Perhaps swap the 
value and name fields?  Or for the name and/or value fields, use 
id numbers from the database.  The name could even be an array, such as:

   name="car[123]"

allowing your receiving script to loop through all of the "car" array 
elements with a foreach statement.

Without knowing the more context of what you're trying to do, it's hard to 
give more solid guidance.
