I get compliments often. I've seen people walk to the back and say "It's a Boxster". They probably don't even know who makes it.

Also have people pronounce it Porsh. I don't correct them because they probably don't realize they are saying it incorrectly and mean no harm. I was in a car audio store a couple of days ago and the owner called it a Porsh several times then sheepishly said maybe he should call it a Porsche. I said it didn't bother me but some Porshe owners would be greatly offended.

As far as the "how fast" question goes, I'm like Schnell! and say the speedo goes to 180. (Hey Schnell!, there's an extra tick hidden by the tach - you just picked up 5mph.)
