Grammar police in here pls!!

I'm just doubting myself here, but are the apostrophes wrong in the following sentence:

'MR2’s, Celica’s, GT86, BRZ, Supra’s, Lexus, Corolla’s, Starlets,…….If you like Motorsport and Toyota’s then the Toyota Sprint Series is the place to be.'

I think it should just be:

"MR2s, Celicas, GT86, BRZ, Supras, Lexus, Corollas, Starlets,…….If you like Motorsport and Toyotas then the Toyota Sprint Series is the place to be."

I concur... but then I am sometimes useless at grammar and I kinda have jet lag and it's 5:20 in the morning ;)

Yeah your version seems about right :)

Failing that you could just add one in to every word and see if anyone even notices? :D

And according to Alan Partridge you should be using "Lexi" as the plural of Lexus ;)

That's why I'm thinking this works:

"MR2, Celica, GT86, BRZ, Supra, Lexus, Corolla, Starlet,…….If you like Motorsport and Toyotas then the Toyota Sprint Series is the place to be."

MR2 first and Starlet last definitely sounds right to me :p

No apostrophes in the sentence - general rules which are sufficient for 99% of situations are that an apostrophe is either signifying ownership e.g. "Vix's MR2" or it is a contraction e.g. "here is" becomes "here's". Neither applies in the sentence you want to write - normally I'd suggest if you're unsure to err on the side of caution and leave them out.

Although where the word already ends in an "s" such as "Lexus" then I'd add an "es" onto the end. A quick guide which might help is the Oxford Dictionaries site (http://oxforddictionaries.com/words/apostrophe).

Lexusssessseses :)

[volospian]

Not sure why some appear to be singular (such as BRZ, GT86 and Lexus) while others are plural (such as MR2s)

[vix]

Nope, haven't a clue! I have changed them all to singular now!!
