I swear to god I'm seriously shopping the new Outback next October when this lease is up.

We welcome you. I am sure you will enjoy the guy I was behind today for service. He had a hard time grasping that the extended warranty he bought on his used car from another dealer was not a Subaru warranty.

I’m never referring to the name of that car company ever again. I’ll only use model names, unless of course they develop a Das Porsche or something.

Sorry, but when guys say Poorsh, to me they sound like country club wives who know nothing about cars. If you like saying it the wrong way, go for it.

Exactly.

The irony is that “Porsh” is much more likely to be used by the ignorant, pretentious, douchebag variety of Porsche owner. The gold chain, toupee-wearing sort. Means he doesn’t really know his own car. Bought it because it’s a “Porsh.”

On the other hand, every single car enthusiast I’ve ever met says “Por-shuh.”

Speaking for myself, I say Porsh instead of Porsche for the same reason I say cab rather than cabernet sauvignon in most circumstances.
