Ahura (title = Lord) Mazda (name = Wise). Deity of Mazdanians, Zoroastrians, Parsi, Pharsi. A monotheistic religion.
Ahura Mazda predates Yahweh. And Mazda had a car brand named after Him. Of course, so did Mercury and Saturn. The last Mercury Capri was actually a Mercury-Mazda joint venture.

1) 1967 Mercury Cougar (it was later T-bird based. The last one seemed Probish, but I am uncertain.)
2) 1979 Mercury Capri (original, then Mustang, then Mazda)
Of the 2 Mustang offshoots: The '67 Cougar was a unique Mustang based car. The 1979 Capri was too much like a Mustang.
