(tramp stamp?) 
though it IS interesting that 'Porsh' (as the Wendy's drive-thru employee complimented the car this weekend
) is one of the few manufacturers not to put marque (not just model) ID on the tail... (hell, the Feerarrees have a chromed, prancing gelding slapped on their butts. Rolls has their 'RR'... But, Porsh? Nada.)

Doh! You're right. (And damned near as big as chevy trucks used to blast "CHEVROLET" on their tailgates... And though it IS there, all blended in red... stealth-like...)

...some look very good, indeed! Not for my taste's, mind you -- but still.
(So, it's been seen before. Maybe it'd have to be a little more modest in size to the one up front.)

Lonnie, personally I feel embarrassed when people pronounce Porsche with an over-emphasised "uh" tacked on. Its 'closer' to the correct pronumciation, however its usually always the pretentious types that like to do this imo. I don't work at McDonalds and will always say 'porsch'....

I think those that try too hard to pronounce always (ALWAYS) end up over emphasizing an "uh" or "ah" at the end and ultimately it sounds pretentious. In my opinion its as ostentatious as placing an additional crest on the boot of your car!!!

Nah, I don't think so either. I'm English and when I was a kid everybody talked about Porsche's and everybody referred to them as a "Porsh". That was the object of my desire for so many years and thats the name that recalls those feelings.
