Within the past week I've seen a BMW 330i with the plate "BMW330I" and a Subaru Tribeca with the plate "TRIBECA." Wow, how original. Why would you pay extra for a plate that says the exact same thing that's already badged on your vehicle?

Spaces count as characters on your plates? Interesting :) Yeah I was working on a basis it was just the alphabet, but yours sounds more reasonable.

Except it's not a personalized plate.Quote:

In the town I grew up in there used to be an old cougar that tooled around in a 450SL with 'ALIMONY' plates. :)
Somewhat OT, but any discussion of personalized plates reminds me of the plate I saw on a car driven by a woman in San Diego about 20 years ago that was in the standard "one-digit three-alpha three-digit" format. It was surrounded by a plate holder that said "No It's Not Personalized". The plate read "1FEM469".
When I was kid their was a hot blonde in our area who drove a white Corvette. Her plate on the front (not official) said: IF YOU CAN BEAT ME YOU EAT ME! We drooled every time she drove by!
perfect reason to put sugar in her tank....no pun intended :FIREdevilQuote:
