apex-eye, i believe the I stands for integration
i hate ppl that call O.Z. rims oz rims

and for the celica, i watched an australian celica flash commercial and they pronounced it sell-ih-cah, but everyone here calls them sell-eeh-cahs

I don't think anyone would get that upset at the pronounciation, but the name Eibach is German derived, and the correct German pronounciation would be EYE-bock.

There are two movies here, one has a filename that ends in the digit 3 - if you view past the intro, you'll hear some d00d speaking in german, eventually it will zoom in on the springs of the car, and shortly after they say Eibach.

o what its not a-pex-ee? ahaha that's what i always called it.
i say e-bach too. aha i also hate it when people call it the cell-lik-kah. ^^^^^^ aha

the ones that are obviously japanese words
are easy to pronounced like hirakana would be.

su-ba-ru

sue-bah-rue


enkei

Eye-Bock is probably the way to do it.

i sometimes drag the ch into chi.
