Definitive pronunciation of Porsche!

Porsche Actually Made a Video on How to Pronounce It's Name

[svandamme]

Don't care one way or another, i've been saying porsh because everybody here says porsch and i'm not about to change.

Wasn't Ferry quoted as saying "I don't care how you pronounce my family name as long as you buy my cars" ?

[Fast Freddy 944]

Porsche, por-shay, por-sha, or por-shay-shayy, the name says it all, and that's a good thing.

You must have a re-mix, she says it pretty well on my album.

I can't stand it when I hear people say "Porsch". Makes me think of Uncle Rico posted above LOL.

[masraum]

Some of the time I say: Pour - shə
Some of the time I just say: Porsh

[JackDidley]

New guy here. Ive been lurking here and driving my Porsh for 21 months. If I move to Germany, I'll say Porsch-uh. I am in the USA and If I buy a hotdog I dont ask for a veener either.

[ckelly78z]

It's always been Porsh-sha to me. It strikes me that uneducated people pronounce it Porsh, because they just don't know any better, and drive a Chebby.

[Por_sha911]

I told you so.

Rediculous for Ridiculous

That would be interesting if it were true but google only has 1 result for that quote, and it's you posting it on Pelicanparts...

An older lady cutting my hair the other day saw my car (911 sc) and remarked
"That's a nice looking beetle you have there, what kind of car is that anyway?"

(We are in a small town and she really had no idea what it was)

I smiled and said "You got it right- That's EXACTLY what it is!" LOL

First time my grandpa saw the '84 M491 he thought the whale tail was the luggage rack.



There's a VW Bug (classic, not new beetle) running around town, owned by a realty co, with a tag of "poorsha"
