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.

Texhunter,

I have first hand knowledge that it is not illegal to drive a black and tan. The charge will not hold up in court. There has NEVER been a conviction on such a charge in the state of Florida.

Glad to hear that Marcos, we are planning a possible move back to Pensacola in the near future and couldn't stand the thoughts of changing the paint scheme or changing cars so thats a welcome relief!
