If it's snooty to pronounce things/correct people then fine, I'm snooty and I'll be the first one to admit it.

Porsche is a family name, and has always been two-syllables, and if you say it wrong in front of me I'll correct you. The same way I'd correct you if you said Raynalt instead of Renault (ray-noh), and I definitely don't own one of those. Believe it or not, you can correct someone without saying like an ****************************, but unfortunately 99.9% of the time people follow calling it a PorSCH up with asking me how much a paid, which is why I just don't answer the question and move on with my life.
