BRZed is how it is pronounced in the country it is produced in. If the Americans had made it the the world should pronounce it as BRZeee, but until then I will always go with the country of origin’s pronunciation for all vehicles. ��

As far as I can find it's Bee Ar Zetto in Japanese (which makes sense as Japanese doesn't typically end a word with a consonant ("n" being the major exception, such as in the "san" honorific)). So unless Gunma got moved to England without anyone noticing both English pronunciation are "wrong".

I was going by how the Subaru engineers pronounced it in the YouTube videos that they released when the car was first launched.

Meh, it actually helps me hear when to shift during track days where I'm not allowed to roll up the window up and the wind buffeting noise is so loud that I can't hear the engine if the sound tube was plugged up or removed.
