Got a new Plate today, lets see yours

I got a "vanity" plate for my 911 today, it was hard trying to come up with something clever and not cheesey that someone did not already have in PA.

Here it is, what do you think? I thought it was subtle and mostly something that only Porsche folks would understand.



Merry Christmas - Happy Holidays - etc., etc., etc.

Erik

it is an abreviation of the german term for air cooled, i only had 7 letters to work with. I thought it was kind of clever.

my 2nd choice was "schnell" which is german for fast, if someone is looking for a cool plate there is a good chance that it might not be taken in your state.

the rear view mirror special - not that a low black 930 doesn't already look pretty menacing in your rear view...



as it appears:

EWL: ha ha - don't feel bad, almost nobody gets it. most think it means "oh you brute"...

ps: I used to have DNF911 (did not finish) on my race car until I converted it to historic plates. I also had NEUN11 on my old 3.2 (neun being german for 9)
