It varies by state so you'll have to check your DMV. In VA we can either return them to the DMV or "properly dispose of them" (or something to that effect anyway). So I fold 'em up a couple times and throw 'em out with the trash. VA's nice...vanity plates are only like $20 more and there's tons of plate designs to choose from.

My 350Z plate: ZNEAKY almost went with "RED Z" (the car's blue, btw

)
Not sure about what I'll get on my bmw (after trading in the Z). UBERFUN, or something else or may just not get a vanity on it.

A friend of mine sent me a link to a photo once of a Boxter with plates that read "Was His"

As for the condo thing, in some cities it's even tough to get your foot in the door of a condo downtown. My old apartment complex had a Bently Arnage, a Cont. GT, a 575M, a 360 Spyder, New M5, 911 Turbo(s), db7 Vantage, Rolls Royce, Maserati's, and a few other misc nice cars.

How about nothing to remain anonymous among a hating population lol?

tman · 10-06-2006, 07:29 AM

I saw one on a merc, or someother luxury car, and it read "YNG N RICH". I thought that sooner or later, he/she is going to keyed.

My own one is CDN BRIT; as I was born in the UK, but am a Canadian Citizen.

Carnage · 10-06-2006, 07:52 AM

Since I'm such a bastard about where money goes (I'm an accountant, what can I say), my wife wants me to get a plate that says MR KRABS...

TheAcAvenger · 10-06-2006, 09:23 AM

I'm going with 25TIL4... ask yourself what time that is. And if anyone from virginia steals it before me, i'm coming after you!

toolfan · 10-06-2006, 09:26 AM

I like vanity plates. You should get something like "saloonxi" as in your car, but only german purists would know.

TrailBraker · 10-06-2006, 10:06 AM

I have 2:

On my SLK - SLKAMG

On my trade in that is going to go on my BMW - MMT CNC

KUweatherman · 10-06-2006, 11:17 AM

On my Civic:

Go to KU, WX is the abbreviation for weather. See my name if still not obvious, lol.

Wosby · 10-06-2006, 11:21 AM

I've got custom plates, and have never had a problem. As long as it's not insulting to anyone, you'll be fine.

KUweatherman · 10-06-2006, 11:29 AM

I tried to get 'WTFM8' but the state denied it. Bastards.

TheAcAvenger · 10-06-2006, 05:33 PM

my two most aggravating sites ever were when I say a black maxima weaving through traffic and cut in front of me with the license plate "UENVDIS". Yea, fella, i really envy you and your maxima. But by far, the worst of them all was when I saw some black male driving around an S320 (this was like, 2 months ago, so you know that sucker was superused because they havent made S320s in forever! The license plate was 6FIGNIG.

My favorite plates of all time though were on a modified S2000: W8B4UH8

Lost Rider · 10-09-2006, 12:14 AM

Here's my plate.
Since this is what I do to pay for it, and what I happened to be doing right now while away from it, I don't feel silly with it, even though it's the model of my car.

Where is that? Potter Valley? Nice picture.

I got "AK DUB" on my plate. AK = Alaska. DUB = Volkswagen. I've had a couple of people ask me that if "DUB" (pronounced "Doob") meant joint. Some people don't get that Dub is slang for Volkswagen. I assume most people don't care.

Greeney · 10-09-2006, 05:20 PM

I want "SL4KR" or "RN3GDE" or "GR3NE" or "URM0M" haha.

ATL_Architect · 10-09-2006, 09:18 PM

My favorite vanity plates have been on convertibles….some of my favorites are: “DROPTOP”, “POP TOP”, “NO TOP” (on a Jeep), and ftw….”TOPLESS”…….again, on a Jeep.

Back at college (Auburn University) a friend had a NC vanity plate that read "BEATBAMA"
