Unfortunate car names
Ok, so we all know that STi doesn't mean sexually transmitted infection, but there are other unfortunate car names, like Porches 911 and Lexus IS (Islamic state), the irony being that Lexus is owned by Toyota, and there the jihadis car of choice.
Any other unfortunate names?

In France the Toyota MR2 had its name shortened to MR to avoid the similarity in pronunciation of MR2 with the French words est merdeux, meaning "(it) is shîtty".
