We need a plate like that on a 4 sides.
I think that is the #1 question I get on every ride.

I love the color (the Cobra, not the plate). What color is it?

If they'd let you have eight letters, you could have gone with PASTICHE.

Hahah... Yes, But therein lies the problem - It seems nobody in the United States born in the past 50 years took French (or Art) in Middle School.
The plate I had on the car prior to this one, said:
CAUXBRA
Which I thought was a clever, and rather intuitive fusion of "Faux Cobra" and yet, The SECOND most common question I would get on the car (DWRAT nailed question number one, above ), was:
"Dude.... What does COX-BRA mean, Bro?" (and if I had tried "FAUXBRA", the response would have been: "FOX-BRA...? Dewd, I don't get it.... Is it like, a Fox-Body Mustang or something...?"
and so, I saddled my Langue créative, and surrendered back to common, 2nd grade English...

Color is great! I guess it's something like an "emerald green"?

G511M...:

You could count the number of members on this forum that knew what PASTICHE was on one hand... even if you had lost a couple of fingers to a band saw. Uhhh, RodKnock might have known it, I think he's kind of artsy.

Them "Is it real?" Me: "Feels like it, when I squeeze it..."
Them: " Is it a kit?" Me: " It was, before someone put it together..."
- Or -
Them "Is it a kit?" Me: "No- KITT was a Trans Am - This is a Cobra..."
Them "Does it have a 427...?" Me: "No- Mustang's never came with 427's.."
But I'm ok with all of those questions, as long as nobody ever asks:
"Dude.... Why'd you pick a Honda color for your car? What, are you some kinda ricer or something....? "

Plate UNREAL is not available. It is either assigned to a vehicle or is not available due to unacceptable content.
Please search again.

I think "Pastiche" would have been great for a certain former member here. However, I think Rodknock is more of a "Panache" guy.
Hey, it's Sunday and gotta have some fun!!

College educated, but I had to look it up. Good word. I thought it was going towards the color comment referencing Pistachio! Live and learn.
