Those were my exact words when I visited the Porsche dealership a while ago. "Do you have the new 911?" Sadly, they didn't.

That commercial reminded me of just what kind of job Porsche does building vehicles ... wonderful all around.

That interior looks simply spectacular.

I want one.

Nice commercial, won't see that on TV though. I'm suprised he pronounced Porsche wrong though.
Hint: "Porsche" is a one syllable word. The debate lives on.

Toss in another vote for 2 syllable

I don't think Porsche would allow a mispronunciation of their name in a commercial... so if the commercial says it's 2 syllable, it is I don't really see the other side of the argument here.

Ditto. Me and my dad had this discussion not too long ago. I finally gave in and had to agree it's a 2 syllable word.

Just as O said, Porsch-uuhhhhhh

It's been said that both pronunciations are correct (if that's possible). In my experience, 95% of people say it with one syllable. Usually I've only heard women pronounce it Porsch-uuuhhhhh (no offense to the guys).
Doesn't it sound like the feminine version of Porsche?

We should put up a poll on this one! I'm sticking with one syllable.
