Thanks for the bit on Mazda. I saw this earlier and I was wondering why she pronounced it that way

Very cool on the Suzuki's from India being exported to other nations. Their labor prices are dirt cheap, so that will help to get the car sold.

Very cool video about the Japanese names. Some of them sounded like I thought they would while others had inflections in different places.

However, the company's name is not officially Matsuda. It's Mazda and that was deliberate. Mr. Matsuda named the company after a Persian god whose name sounded like his own.

I picked up this tidbit of car manufacturer trivia from Forza 3 of all places. I didn't know that everyone in Japan pronounces it like Mr. Matsuda's name though. That's pretty awesome.
