Ok, call me a meanie, but why does everyone have their own unique spelling for the Meguiar`s line of car products?
How do <strong class=`bbc`>you[/b] like to spell it???
(the examples I used above are from actual e-mails that thewaxtest.com received...eeek!)

Well, you`ll kill this one if it won`t take the correct spelling:D

I thought it was MecGwiares :confused:
LOL that annoys me as well but I can`t really talk . . . I thought it was pronounced meg-eee-ahrs.

it`s hard to say "Meguires" (proper pronunciation) and type Meguiar`s (proper spelling). I still have a hard time with it now that I know how to say the name correctly . . . I have caught myself typing Meguires for the first (and second and . . ) time!

Don`t you pronounce it like Mike McGwire`s name?
Steve @ Guru

That`s a good question! I`ve heard Mark McGwire`s name pronounced all sorts of ways...
Up `nordth they say, "Mark MAC-gwhu-eyer"
Down south they say, "Mark muh-gwarrrs" (as SouthernBoy will verify)
:)
I`ve heard Meguiar`s pronounced all sorts of ways too, but my preferred way of pronounciation is:
"Meg-wires"

Ok, ok I`m out of it. If there`s anyone who`s familiar with the playing career of Mark "Eve of Destruction" McGwire its me. I`m a die hard fan of the guy and I`ve followed him with his rookie year with the A`s. Remember the Bash Brothers?
Anyway, I pronounce Mark`s last name the second way. Pretty much all of the ESPN anchors and CNNSI anchors, Tony Larussa, etc... do as well. Laters

LOL... do you pronounce it "say-no," "zay-no," "zain-owe," or "zay-ne-owe"?
What about Klasse then?
"Class"
"Classy"
"Klause"
"Klassay"
:D

I really like it when someone posts: "Mcguires is my favorite..."
It`s kind of like when I handed a guy a Corona and he told me it was his favorite beer. He then proceeded to try and twist the top off.

BWAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I did that to someone once. "Sure, I`ll take one. I smoke Newports all the time." This was right before the hacking attack. LOLOLOL
