Note in particular: "The new Belta, which means 'beauty' or 'beautiful person' in Italian..."! Or 'must study harder' in Engrish.

Could this be the best case of poorly researched langauge out of Japan since the Mitsubishi Starion?

They really should stick to calling their cars things like the Bongo Friendee Big Time Forever Allstar.
