Default I have THE "Shark" Tag on order!

Ok... Here is a tag that will be the envy of Shark owners in ALL other states. As of July1, The State of Florida has started issue of a tag for the benefit of "Saving Our Seas". One of the 50+ specialty tags you can get. Well I saw one yesterday & since my tags are all due next month, I beat a path down to the DMV today to order mine when they opened at 7:15 am!!

Heck, the first seven names I gave them were all taken!!(Hope you other Sunshine State Shark owners enjoy my first choices!) I even had to leave and come back so I could think of some more possibilities! When I had another list of 4-5 names I hit the DMV again. Within an hour I had this one ordered, 928V8! NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, FOR ME, ITS PERFECT & SAYS IT ALL!

This is a copy of my tag order that they gave me! I tried to find on the DMV web site the sample one that is in color, but no luck. It has a mostly blue background of course! My Brumos tag frame will cover the "Save Our Seas" along the bottom. Shame it didnt say "Save Our Sharks"!

I'll post a pic once I have the real thing on my Shark! Anyways, I am bout as anxious to get this in 45-60 days as I was for Derrek's used AA chips or DR's Mod Xpipe!!!

Heh, nice.

I have the 928-V8 emblem on my airbox and on my 928s big fat butt for all the world to see.

I love the "Is that a V-8?" questions at redlights.

They're almost as good as the "Did you put a big block Chevy in that thing?" questions.

Yet another benefit of living in the Sunshine State. But hey, we've got an optional brown pelican on Louisiana's plate (not mine, though); not quite as menacing as the Shark, though. I still have people go "HUH?" for my plate; yours is a bit more self explanatory. Nice!

A pelican on my license plate would make me a bigger target for bill collectors...


Nice catch on the shark plate, Mel!

Interesting that they would make these available, considering the recent shark attacks.

Great Idea, That was one of the few that I didnt think to check Normy... I am guessing that it just may be available! Would be perfect too since they allow 5 characters on that plate.
