Like "stallion", the more common way IMO. But I have heard others pronounce it "Stah-rion".

3 votes either way at the moment, means 50% of voters are wrong!

I pronounced it "F*ckn piece od shit" last Saturday when working on the track car :x

But then later we washed Marie's silver bullet and I called it "drop dead gorgeous". :D

You could just claim it as a conquest or a starquest. There is enough people driving around in mazdea 808'sand 929's claiming RX-3 and RX-4.

Or here is another one. Some guy at a local shopping centre has bought himself a 180sx (a common as mud car) and in a bid too make it different he has put 240SX badging on it

Then there is the lists of commonwhores and falcodores that try to be there HSV, Tickford counter parts.

i heard that the starion came from japlish, when they tried to say "stallion" it came out as "starion".
that's what i remember reading ages ago.
Am i even close??? i have seen some starions kicking around with stallion markings.
The trading post ad that was about my car from the previous owner stated that it was a "STALLION", i get there and it's definately a starion. I even kept the ad for a bit of a laugh. rofl
