Land shark is the nickname of my preferred Porsche, the mighty 928.
And here i thought he was just cheering me on.
"The Porsche model 928 is often referred to as a "Landshark" due to its ability to "eat up miles" like no other car. In addition, the frontal area of a Porsche 928 can, when viewed obliquely, resemble the mouth and eyes of a shark - particularly the Hammerhead shark. The 928 was Porsche's relatively little known but dynamically superb front engined V8 super GT built from 1978 to 1995. Today, the 928 is widely lauded as a design icon and an engineering masterpiece for its era."
