I've never had someone ask me how fast it goes, but I'd just say "Fast enough," smile, and walk away.

However, I have had people say "Nice PorSH" to me, often accompanied by a question or another statement. I always just reply, "It's Por-sche, with two syllables," and leave it at that. If they don't pronounce it right, then they don't really care enough about the vehicle to need to ask me a question.

Edit: Oh oh oh, if someone does ask me how fast it goes, I'm actually going to now say "Eh, not very... it just doesn't compare to my Ferrari." and say it very seriously like I'm disappointed. Now I really want someone to ask me. (I don't even like most Ferrari's, but at least the average person will know the name).
