    LOL. My six yo twins pronounce it correctly. Got to start them off young!. I just wish they would stop saying in public, "Daddy, tell them how you spun your Ferrari."

    But I'll have the last laugh. Two words: community college.

    It just sounds better pronounced right. But lots of German words are mispronounced in English.

    You're a good guy for correcting people. I usually keep my mouth shut because there are a verrrrry tiny % of owners who will listen to a 19 yr old.
