What is the right way to pronounce "Porsche"
Porsche, a German proper name, is correctly pronounced PORSH-eh (IPA: /ˈpɔrʃə/).
Some tend to over-vocalize the e, which results in Por-SCHA (/pɔrˈʃʌ/). Others mistakenly treat the e as silent, a pronunciation rule that applies to most words in English and French, but not in German, producing the monosyllabic porsh (/pɔrʃ/).
I found this on a Google search and all of friends in Germany agree, "Porsch" sounds the worst.
