See you on the road!

President’s Message continued……...

"Porsche", a proper name, is originally pronounced as, PORSH-uh, which is how members of the Porsche family pronounce their name.

Some tend to vocalize the e, which results in Por-SCHA. Others, particularly in Canada and the United States, mistakenly treat the e as silent, an English pronunciation rule that does not apply to German, producing the monosyllabic, porsh .
