Default Audi: owdy or awdy

Got into an argument with my boss about this one. He said its pronounced awdy and I say no its owdy. How does everyone say it?

I go with Owdy, and I usually cringe when people say Awdy. I don't know why, its just something that annoys me for no reason, even though I'm wrong.

Since it's a acronym, I suppose you could pronounce it however you want. It's not quite like a regular name that has a specific pronounciation.

I say owdy, my girls that drove my old S4 always called it awdy.
