it sounds funny when the brits say it. impretza and the hood is the "bonnet" and the scoop is the "power buldge"

 

Yes the car is an Impressa, at least thats how some crazy japanese guy explained it to me, he asked what car I had and told him, then he explained to me that there z is an s sound...Then I said kind of like your r is like an L and he just got *****y after that...Hehe

i am going to be using that vocabulary forever now!!! i love it1!! :rotfl:

 

I assumed it was pronounced as if you started out saying impress.

 

I say "impressa" and I role the R like you would in spanish.

 

I say pronounce it however you want...it's still spelt the same way.

Subaru also has that variation. "soob burru(American English)" "soob bAru (German)"

 

:d

Don't forget "boot" for the trunk and "flappy paddle gearbox" for SMG style transmissions.

 

Depends on the mood:

im-pray-zuh

im-preh-zuh

 

Its all dependant upon your dialect.

the English make Z sound like a TH as in "Ibiza, Spain is Ibitha" (real annoying).

The French make TH sound like a Z as in "Zhe car is red"

the Japanese must make an S sound for a Z.

and we say Zee.

 

Also on the topic of Z's, I think the US are one of the only countries (not sure who else) that says Z as Zee. I remember watching the top gear video of the 350z and they say Z as Zed. Some other people said that alot of countries pronounce it like that too.
