Hawaii Owners, Need Help! POG Shirt!

I was in Maui, and had a great time while there... one thing I noticed, VERY little import cars... I saw maybe 1 350z, 1 S2000, a handful of Civics... that's about it. I would have loved to drive my RX-8 downhill on the Haleakala road, or the Road to Hana.

What I need is someone from the islands to help me find any info regarding a POG shirt or POG anything that isn't just the drink. My g/f loves POG, almost more than she loves me... but I need POG! Help!! :D

My wife loves POG too!! She was hooked on it while on our honeymoon in Maui. I could just picture my 8 or Miata taking the road to Hana with ease Anyone else have any info on some POG? I know I would freak out my wife if I could get some sent to her.

Ya I'm serious. We went looking all over Maui, and no Pog Shirt whatsoever. Help me find a shirt please! Or at least the uhmm design for the pog drink you can buy at the market. I think I could transfer that to a Design-Your-Own T-shirt.

You can buy the POG drink from... http://www.maui-info.com/POG.html

I'm sure there are other places.

But on Maui, I saw 0 RX-8. I'm sure Oahu has more since it's more a city atmosphere.

Miata would be fun on Road to Hana. Dinky, fast, and I wouldn't give a crap if it gets mangled. I love how the tour guide that drove the van showed us the sites where drunken people drove over the cliffs... smashed cars at the bottom.

Btw, I was mostly in the Lahaina area.. so I only saw 1 350z, 1 S2000. The rest were all Chrysler rentals.

I kept thinking that it's got to be pretty rare to drive a Lotus or Ferrari on Maui, considering that you have bring it over... could be only a handful of them. I mentioned Lotus because I saw a yellow one parked on Front Street in Maui. And a Ferrari Modena near where the Mercedes Golf Tournament was going on.

Ok, back to the POG. POG HELP POG!

But also to agree... the people on Maui was much more polite and patient. Maybe it's because they knew most of their business is from tourism so they acted like that. But I felt that they were sincerely more polite. Had a great time there... not sure if I could mellow out (hang loose) like the locals if I ever decide to live there... I would miss the traffic and smog of LA. And of course the Drive-by road rages.

Oh and lots of temporary made crosses/wreathes on the roadside in Maui, guess LOTS of accidents along the road. :P
