That's sweet! I think if I saw something like that in a parking lot, I'd flip! Not too many of them in the New England states though...

That's cool to see him driving it around. Hope he joins here.

Question - Is it legal for him to drive that car in Florida with it still painted in that color scheme?

driving that car as-is in florida would surely result in penalty! highly illegal!


there is one running round near me too but I've never been able to talk with him.

That car is in Florida. There is ABSOLUTELY nothing illegal about driving or owning that car as is. The issue arises when you have wanabes flashing lights and acting like Nimrods.

FHP vehicle paint scheme
The black-and-cream paint scheme is actually camouflage to help the vehicle blend in with the road surface (black) and parched grass medians (cream).The paint adds $657 to the purchase of each vehicle. Prior to sale, the patrol defaces the cars so that they cannot be misconstrued as official law enforcement vehicles. The defaced, two-tone paint deflates each car's resale value by approximately $400.
It is a misdemeanor in Florida to operate a car in the colors of the FHP.
