Oldsmobile: Overpriced, leisurely driven sedam made of Buick's irregular leftover equipment.

Didn't AUDI stand for Accelerates Unintentionally, Disaster Inevitable?

In America, we say it stands for "Accelerates Under Demonic Influence" -- reference to the "sudden unintended acceleration" PR fiasco.

BMW = Bought My Wife

Volvo = Very Odd Looking Vehicular Object

Hyundai = Hope You Understand Nothing's Drivable And Inexpensive

Toyota = Too Often Yankees Overprice This Automobile

SAAB = Sitting Almost Always Broken

FIAT = Failed Italian Automotive Technology

My wife and I were just talking about these acronyms today. She asked me if there was one for Lancia. I said I never heard of one; not enough people [in the States] know what it is. So she came up with:

Lancia = Little Automobile Nobody Can Identify Anyways

. . . . . . . or: Lonely Abandoned Neglected Cars Italians Assembled

. . . and I came up with: Look, Another Noisy Crappy Italian Automobile (said in good fun, as I really like Lancias! )

And she also likes Smart Cars, so she came up with:

Smart = Small Mercedes Appliance, Really Tiny!

. . . . . or: Smile, My Automobile Runs, Too!

. . . . . and mine was: Silly Miniscule Automoble, Really Toylike!
