I couldn't believe it was available...
 
....But it was, so I reserved it. It finally arrived in the mail yesterday:

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.:cool:

I suppose "UNREAL" wasn't available.

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 :cool: ), was:

"Dude.... What does COX-BRA mean, Bro?" :rolleyes: (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...

:cool:

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

G511M...:

Color Codes - model/year code G511M Cross-Reference

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.:LOL: 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....? " :LOL:

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!!

Love the 'street' look, and the color!

Murky781 04-17-2016 03:59 PM

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.
