How do you say Galant?

Is this how you Americans pronounce Galant, or is it just this guy?

That guy says in a very strange way.

I say it like Tom does: click

 

[marvinmadman]

That's what I tried to portray in my post lol. I say it the same as Tom too

That guy is pronouncing it like it is spelled Gallant.

Don't care how he pronounced it; intrigued by the car and story.

 

[JDM_DSM]

Yeah, that is a beautiful car.

Sounds like most of you say it the same as we do up north. I was curious if there was a regional difference like with Celicas.

The unofficial version: There are no "hard" vowel sounds in Japanese, just soft.

Gah-Lah-N-Tu ( with the "u" being almost silent, like the "e" in many Engrish words like well "like" ).

And yeah the car and article are very nice.

71 Colt/Galants GTO's are gorgeous cars....I really like them, but after seeing this video a few months back, I really want one!

It is similar to how we pronounce it down in Australia.

GUL-LANT.

He sounds quite Japanese when he speaks of the car.

Very cool ride.
