    how do you say your model number?

    M3 is easy enough

    but 325i for example, do you say three-two-five-eye, or three-twenty-five-eye?

    I say it as three-twenty-five-eye

              The way you're supposed to? 3 25 i, just like everyone else. It's how you just say it with the series and designation. Anything else is just wrong ;P

                          How do you say eta? Do you say e-t-a or eh-tah. I have been around people who say both.
