How does that work? Do you have to pay more for it or what? But I won't....

Thats cool if you like it. I really don't care for vanity plates on my car or even a front plate or even the front plate mounting holes. But that's your car so do as you wish.

The worst I've ever seen was "Y B Poor" on a canary yellow Porsche 911. You talk about begging for a key job!

Sure get a custom plate if you have something good to say, or perhaps something clever for those "in the know" but please don't attempt to "personalize" your car with a statement of the obvious...in other words some reference to the car model, make, year, that's just plain moronic.

This is probably true. I also think canuks tend to be nicer people. Sure you may ding each others doors from time to time but that isn't on purpose. I don't really know why but in the US we seem to have more haters per capita than any other country.

The best license plate was my math teacher's. It was "QT314"

Took me a while to get it, but just made me laugh so hard.

QT = Cutie .....3.14 = pie

haha

I have had my own plates since 1992. My dealer just changed them to my new car each time.

Seriously, some of those pretentious license plates are too much. I mean, bully for you for being all successful or born to money or whatever, but there's no reason to flaunt as such. Tacky. Ew.

This wasnt an acutal license plate, it was the frame.. It was a mercedes, and on the top it said "his and her car" and the bottom said "her car, his payments"..HAHAH.. i thought it was so funny.

Can you imagine what so many non BMW drivers think about us BMW drivers? Pretty much the same. Especially when we take off from the red lights so fast in our e90s and leave everyone behind - in full safety of course.

I wouldn't have it any other way, would you?????
