[Tonio]

I refuse to allow any foreign spellings on U.S. soil. This is america, spell in English. It's Turin.

The spelling Torino is a conspiracy to get the Italian Government defining how we spell.

I wonder if the Germans are going to start demanding that we call their country Deutschland. Or the Austrians will throw a tantrum because we say Austria instead of Osterreich.

So Starsky & Hutch rolled in a Gran Torino or Gran Turin?

You mean the new (XX) X speed driver? or merely the X speed?

If Starsky & Hutch tried to roll in a Gran Tonio, they would probably lose their engine before the left the station parking lot.

That's great - wondered where they got that name from
