I recommend watching the movie The Odd Couple. Pay extra attention to Felix Ungar.

Porsh is how people who don't know anything about the car say it. And this thread is a load of shizer.

Here's my last shovelful: por-shah, porsh-ah, por-sheh, porsh-eh, por-shuh, or porsh-uh? I'd hate to get the nuance wrong. Did anyone here hear Ferdinand say Porsche?

Go to post #22 in this thread, select the posted link, select the "Hear MP3 Audio" icon, and listen to how the German words listed (including "Porsche") are pronounced. The biggest thing to recognize is that the name "Porsche" is pronounced with two syllables, not one. Since it is difficult to speak another language without an accent, the best thing you can do is at least attempt to get the basic structure of the word as correct as possible.
