Default Personalized License Plate - You Vote!

Hi Guys,

I have several options for a personalized license plate for my new incoming '97 Targa, and assuming they're all available, which one would you vote for?

Some plates in FL are 7 digits(they allow one extra space or hyphen), some are 5 digits(no space or hyphen allowed).

7 digits
( 97 911)
(911 97)
(97 TARGA)
(993 410)
(911 C2T)
(993 C2T)
(97 993C2)
(97 911C2)

5 digits
(97911)
(91197)
(TARGA)
(911C2)
(993C2)

Since everyone knows it's a Porsche and that it's a 911/993, I don't think you need to repeat it on a plate. Just my $0.02.

I still like "TARGASM" (assuming you get the OK from Adrian )

+1

Im DYETRYN on my 95 C4 and my personal opinion is to go with something that fits who you are not and not what you drive.

With an average of 30-40 days on the slopes per year, I used to be SNOWBUM--both in CA and UT---on my SUV

I dont have personalized on my Bronco. I thought about EZLIVIN.

I may be a SNOWBUM at heart but live a peaceful, EZLIVIN, and certainly will DYETRYN making the best of my life here on earth.

Default Go more esoteric on them . . .

To add to the very creative submissions so far, you can always go a little more Roman and use the likes of:

CMXI T (911T)
IX XI T (9-11 T)
IXXCII T (9-93 T)
XCVII T (97 T)
CMXCIII (993)

Or substitute of l33tspeak:

POR5CHE
PORSCH5
A1R COOL
AIR K00L
97 TAR9A

And finally good ol' license plate shorthand:

STUTGRT
ZHAUSEN

The possibilities are only limited by the creativity of this forum, which appears to be boundless

WEISSACH

(I agree with the 'don't say porsche or year or even model type on a plate' opinions)

mine celebrates the marque's competition history at the one race I have yet to attend:
