Unless you're a redneck and call the thing on top of your shack a "ruf".

I never understood why this one is so difficult. It's German for fox. There's even a little fox imprinted on the inside of each and every one! That should clear up pronunciation. Except that (I believe) the German plural is the same as the singular (like moose in English).

I guess the bottom line is that it does not matter whether you call it a Porsch-ah, Porsch-eh, Porsch, 911 P-car, or any other name. People all over the world will understand what car you are talking about and will appreciate that you are driving the best car in the world.

Very well said Justin...well, thank you.
