Avert your eyes from my pollen-encrusted hood and behold! The mother of all personalized plates: It says what it is. It is what it says. By default it becomes anything and everything you need or want it to be. (And the car it’s attached too ain’t all bad, either. In fact it’s downright appropriate).
I once watched with amusement as a police officer tried to decide if my ’97 T-bird Sport was blue or green. I can only imagine the Abbott-and-Costello hilarity if he had to discuss this particular car.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I had to read it out loud 4 times before I understood it.
-
Well, that's meta. Pretty clever.
A month ago I saw a MINI Cooper S with the plate "2AAREQD". That was awesome. -
After all these months, I still love the tags….

Double awesome if it was driven by —^ -
Apollonia?

Submitted by an E30 convertible driving hoon with a Florida plate reading "OL RG TP". -
i have heard stories of this plate… be it urban legend or not…. makes for a funny story. something along the lines of tickets being thrown out because the individual did have a plate and could prove it (though it was a vanity plate reading just that).. and the officer didn't put quotes around the phrase… or trying to call in the plate and finding no record/getting frustrated with dispatch/the computer system and just letting the people go…..
good stuff… and good luck with that! -
Would be a great idea, until I start getting tickets for other people:
* <ahttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/news/6395738/… with "XXXXXXX" number plate receives parking fines for every unidentified car in city: The owner of a car with the personalised number plate "XXXXXXX" has received more than $19,000 worth of parking tickets intended for other vehicles. -
I found out that "LOLVO" was taken, and suddenly I stopped caring about vanity plates.
Maybe someday. For now, I rather enjoy the anonymity – and, well, I'm ridin' dirty without a front plate, even (which means I can largely tailgate with impunity). -
Yeah, but the UK is invariably run by imbeciles.
…Not that the States is much/any better off. -
Some year, I'll get the vanity plate NONE or NO PLATE or BLANK. That'll show 'em.
-
err..that would be planet not the rhyme with granite….sorry hoons….
-
Unfortunately, my state does not support 7 digit vanity plates. "Zamboni" will have to wait.
-
I still have my Ohio tags that say "SPD RSR". SPD RCR was already taken. I had them on my brand new (at the time) 93 Competition Yellow Mica Rx-7. Think I got pulled over much???
-
Gosh, you? Pulled over? NEVER.
-
My favorite will always be the A4 I see on my way to work with the plate "NACHOA4"
-
There's a Corvette in L.A. that has 'REARPL8' on the back…I never got to see the front.

My dad saw a SAAB 95 in Portland being driven by an elegant looking older lady. Plate: SNAAB
