Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Curious to know who has the most original license plate (idea). The plate could be real, or just a phrase, letter/number combination you really like.
Of course, relevance to the Porsche/996 marque wins extra points.
Regards.

For those of you who do not have small children and do not watch Tigger or Winnie the Pooh, let me explain. Tigger is the wonderful tigger, with a spring for a tail, and he's the only one (it's his song, sung by my 2 year old). As he prepares to zoom off, Tigger goes "TTFN!! That's tata-for-now to you!!!", and he boings away on his spring for a tail. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />
So, now, rennlisters know. Anybody else can go figure it out.

When I was at Porsche, I noticed that they refer to the TT as "Top"; on paperwork, signs, carts, etc. All others were referred to by their internal designations: 996 C4S, 996C2, etc.
I was lucky enough that "Top" was available:

Was that as an employee?
At PAG or PCNA? And what department?
Just curious. (And btw, nice car)

Mike in Chi,
It was Zuffenhausen Germany (Porsche production); R&D/test track is in Weissach.
Not an employee, rather a supplier. I work for Bose, Automotive Systems Division, and I designed the DSP amplifier for all Porsches.
When I was at Zuffenhausen, my German coworkers arranged a factory tour (as a birthday present, as I had to travel/work on my birthday which really screwed up the surprise party my wife had planned).
Next trip over I am planning on visiting Porsche/Weissach and getting one of their drivers to take me for a test drive around their track.
Although I design amplifiers for Porsche, Audi and Mercedes, if Porsche had an opening, I would work for them tomorrow; but for now this is OK
Lewis
Very cool. and thanks for the reply.
It would be wonderful to tour weissach and get a couple hot laps with one of their drivers.
Hope you get hooked up.
Mike
Like Ed, I also thought of the "Dial 911" tag way back when all I wanted was a 911 Turbo. A friend of mine in Maryland with a 944 Turbo S when they first came out had this tag put on his car, "MNMNNM". I don't know or remember if that was the exact sequence but the up and down zig zag effect is the same.
He was always outrunning the police in the area and you could be sitting behind his car at a traffic light and get cross eyed trying to make it out accurately. I suppose any variation of similar looking letters will do, O's and Q's, T's and I's etc.

Very smart. Very, very smart. Will keep that in mind. As for creativity, although there have been quite a few runner ups, I think the winner continues to be "Dial 911." Love it.
Regards.
I think I may go for it on the new car. DIAL 9II is SOOO cool, I'm just worried the cops will give me a hard time.
On the topic of police evaders, one guy I saw in NYC had one that went something like this:
1LI1ILI1
Try writing that on a ticket!
I saw this one at the track. I believe he's on this board. I know he's on CFG's.
It's the best I've seen in person:

If I had the *****, I would use V8SLAYR on my forthcoming 996TT.
I checked and its available. I just don't want to invite the added attention from cops, street racers, upset V8 owners and others. Its hard to plead ignorance/accident to a cop when you have a plate like that.

My ocean blue 99 Carrera Coupe has a California veterans plate with the word "PAYBAK". I get lots of looks since 9/11. The Marine Corps emblem is posted to the left of the plate.
We are limited to 6 characters in this state........Currently have:
CAB911....on the 02Cab
996TT.....on the turbo
TIPPLE....(last name) on the 993Strosek
AMG.......on the E55
