I'm not sure what you mean when you say you want to create a "database with data.car extension". CF is a web application server, not a database server.

Information about connecting to databases can be found in the CF documentation. See:

As JR indicated ColdFusion is an Web Application Server NOT a Database server.

It is somewhat confusing, because ColdFusion DOES come bundled with a Database server. That is the Apache Derbry Database server now-a-days. But using this would NOT have a "data.car" file naming convention.

If you care to play around using the Apache Derby product there is plenty of documentation out there, including how to access and control it through CFML constructs.
