What an idiotic poll subject.

Who on Earth votes on the validity of easily reviewed facts?

It's a surname, for cryin' out loud. How may one have an "opinion" about pronouncing somebody else's name?

It's German (or maybe Austrian - same language) and has uniform pronunciation rules easily followed by those who speak it.

Sheesh

K, if you read the question, you'd have seen, it's not "what is the correct pronunciation?" Rather "How do YOU pronounce it?" As in the right way, or the wrong way!!!!

My bad!

When I read "How do you pronounce Porsche?", I thought it was trying to ask "How does one pronounce Porsche?", but had been written in web-speak English.

Thanks for pointing out it was written precisely and I mis-read it.

The itinerant painter re-appeared at the front door carrying a soggy brush and an empty paint can. He says to the house owner, "OK, Mister, I'm finished. But, just so you know, that ain't no Porch, it's a Maserati!"

Right on man. I was afraid some people may have thought I meant that, but if you follow the link, I say I know I pronounce it the wrong way etc.... Anyhow,
