Why do people think that there's a make of car called the "Austin Martin?"

Aston Martin. Austin Healey.

Yes, they are both hot British cars. They are, however, not the same thing. I know it must be very confusing for people who are unwilling to differentiate their vowels, or are incapable of it, but that's just the way it is.

James Bond drives an Aston Martin. Not an Austin Martin. I am coming for you, stupid sports announcer who said "Austin Martin" at least three times during a broadcast.

Here's why:

Also:

There was a young fellow from Boston
Who drove around in an Austin.
There was room for his ass
And a gallon of gas,
But his balls hung outside,
So he lost'em.
