How do YOU say it?

Which way do you pronounce Impreza?

1 = Impreza ( Im-PreTza )
2 = Impreza ( ImpreZZa)
3 = Scoob : )

Just wondering as I’ve heard it many ways.

I pronounce Number 1. but hey maybe I’m wrong……………..
How about you?

What happened to the black beast m8 !!!

LOL at snow..., I just call mine "an endless pit for my hard earned cash but a motor that gives me more smiles per mile than any other car I know although it attracts a lot of attention, good and bad, and no officer, it's all legal and yes kids, it's fast"

since when is english or any language pronounced as a rule as it is written?

pizza has a t in its pronunciation.

in english how would you deal with the words borough, cough, station, women, manslaughter?

It depends on which model.
If it's a saloon say ex-are-three-eye
If it's an estate say sheep-carrier
