Words spoken by a true Porschuh elitist. Get a 997 turbo, it's a much better car. The 996 is like a beetle compared to the 997. I would guess the 991 is the same jump.

I agree, especially if you have more money than talent! Don't know how to manage weight transfer, slip angle or which gear to take the corner in? No problem! Just let your pdk select your gear and your PSM, PASM and PSV save your @ss every time and make you believe you drive like a rock star!

I prefer Porsh-uh.
But I say Missour -ee, not Missour-uh.
I also say "thee" not "thuh" as a definite article.
However, I would never say Porsh-ee.
So, there's that.

"Porsh-ee" now there's a new version. Haha! Sounds like a lot of my redneck friends.

This deserves the "Best Derailed Thread of the Year" award for 2016.

How it went from the evils of street racing to the correct pronunciation of Porsche was outstanding!

BTW...street racing is bad...AWD is different than 4WD...it's pronounced "Porsha"...and now, whenever I type "Dock" on my iPad, it automatically auto corrects by replacing the "o" with an "i"...
