aww-toe-pee-uhh is how I pronounce it.
Utopia defined:
An ideally perfect place, especially in its social, political, and moral aspects.
I don`t think I need to define Automobile for ya though ;)

aw-TOE-pee-uh- It`s a take-off on "Utopia", a mythical place where (short version) everything was perfect.
Edit: Heh heh, gotta type faster...

Tricky name. I bet many were pronouncing it different from the way it`s supposed to be.
I had figured it had something to do with the word utopia but the sites owner could be Fred "Pia" for all I know :D
So it doesn`t hurt to ask:up

Actually, I never use my 3 initails together. I almost got a vanity plate with my initials PNS but changed my mind. PNS . . . get it? Not the greatest 3 letters for a plate:D
