I don't know if it was already mentioned, but there was a Mistsubishi "Pajero". Sadly in Spanish it means wanker.

EDIT: Blimey, the swear-filter let that through? :embarrassed: :D
 
So Baby Boomers got their own Mazda before us younger folk got the Millenia(2.3)L S?

The best car name?

The Lamborghini Gallardo LP-570-4 Squadra Corse

Squadra Corse sounds so cool.

Car name I hate?

Porsche Panamera? Panamerica? Panini?
 
the Isuzu Mysterious Utilitity Wizard has to be one of the best car names ever.

The Nissan Homy Super Long on the other hand is one where when asked "what car do you drive?" you'd just say "a Nissan".

Saying "I drive a Homy Super Long" might illicit odd reactions.

Let's just erase a bit in the "M" and get an R and N separate.

What makes Fit so odd to you? Just curious.

I don't know. Maybe because the car is sold under the Jazz nameplate here, and I though the name was strange when I came across it in GT4.
 
I think the name makes a lot of sense, especially since it's a tiny car. It can Fit into tight spaces.
 
It's in the same vein as the Ford Ford, Hyundai Hyundai, Volkswagen ElectricalTrouble or Jaguar Jaguar... it's redundant.

I've wondered if in Italy it is common place to just refer to car by its model name and hence LaFerrari is not that illogical.
 
I am disappointed that the experimental Fairlane called the Ford Thunderbolt didn't become a long-production car because that's a fantastic name.

Or the Chrysler Chrysler. Even worse, it's technically the Chrysler by Chrysler.

*shudder*
