Full Version: How do you[/B] say Porsche?
I have a friend who always says "porSCHA" emphasizing the "scha" part. It sounds a little wierd but it's the way Europeans say it. (so I'm told)
It is their family name... two syllables.. Por sche

Being the LAZY American (as Andy likes to say), I say it both ways...
2 sylable word...

This was on my 914 until it got old enough for Historic plates...
Nice Por-sche Butt on the Carrera 
If it says so on a t-shirt, It must be true.
I just call it my 914...

As hypersensitive as Porsche AG is about everything with their name and logo, I cannot imagine they would put up for one second the name being mispronounced on American television ads.
If they can call themselves "por sha" than so can I.
