Do You Like the "Boxster" Name?

Gee, I don't know--do you like the name Porsche?

Definitely 986. There's an interesting possibility that the turbo 4banger variants will be called 718s. I like the idea of numbers for the sports cars and names for the trucks and sedans.

I usually say "porsha" at the dealership and when talking to other owners, otherwise I say "porsh". Although I realize it is the correct pronunciation, "porsha" always sounds a bit pretentious and affected to me. I also think they could have come up with something much less silly than "boxster".
