Default my T shirt idea on Blipshift

Hi all, just visiting from the 993 forum.

I had an idea for a 911 related t-shirt. Not enough skill to draw it, so I submitted the idea to Blipshift. I originally wanted a pic or simple line drawing of each model of aircooled 911 along with "respect your elfers". Too many cars would make it busy, they said. Unfortunately they did not go with a 993 either. It looks like a Carrera RS to me. Goes on sale Monday, they asked I not show the artwork until it goes on sale, so in a day you can see it. Will update with link. For full disclosure : I'm only getting a free t-shirt out of the deal as I did not totally design it, just the idea. Not making any money off of this. Hope you like it.

I'm wearing it as I'm posting this right now. Seven 911s of various years ('67 to '17) on my block. I had two neighbors stop me and ask as I walked my dog this morning........ nice work. (Like the color of the shirt too but I'm a blue guy.)

911 – “Neun elf” (Nine eleven) is correct and common, whereas nobody really says “Neun Hundert elf” here (although it would be correct German grammar).
Some german Porsche Fans also say „Neun Elfer“ (Nine elevener) or just very short „Elfer“ (Elevener)

As a native German, I would say: Respect your Elfer! ...without the „s“ despite having more than one!

Oh now I get it! And to think I've been learning German and didn't recognize it. So disappointed in myself.
