Things that REALLY piss me off
-People that pronounce Nismo "nih-smo". It's NISsan MOtorsports. The Japanese "I" is pronounced as a long "E". If you're telling me it's "Nih-smo", then I'll tell you it's "Nih-san". Sounds f**king retarded, doesn't it?
-People that tell me Nismo is an American company. Founded in Oppama. Headquarters in Tokyo. Yeah, that sounds real American.
-People that assume because Nismo/Nissan employees in the US pronounce it "Nih-smo" that that's the correct pronunciation. Congratulations, they can pronounce it however their little hearts desire; that doesn't make it right. If I worked for McLaren and pronounced it "Mick-lar-een", would that make it right? No, it would make me retarded, like everyone who pronounces it "Nih-smo".

No, I don't get it. Ford is an American company. My car was made in Flat Rock, Michigan. I have a German engine and a Mexican transmission; most of the other parts were made in either the United States or Mexico.
Explain?
