Default Vanity plates?

Vanity plates are cheap here. Who's got 'em (since I don't know), and what do they say?

I'm curious.

Like a cat.

Heh. Well, he suggested "No Boost," but when I looked at our registration for NV, I saw "GC8 LUV" in the plate spot. =P

I don't care too much for GC chassis/engine specifics, so..

But isn't the GC8 the GC body WRX that never came to the US?

Don't tease me.

I still think it sounds better than GC6.

But.. I could get an EJ20 swap and a VIN plate to go with.... =D

Dean suggested RSTLESS when I was trying to decide on mine. I would have gone with it had NOTURBO been taken already.

I like it because it obviously says, "restless," but also could loosely be translated as, "RS turbo-less."

My Audi has AQUATRO. It has a couple ways to read it, and points out the people who know nothing about AWD cars, and ask "What's Aqua Tro?"

There were a bunch back in this thread... But at least NOTURBO is already gone...

I always wanted to randomly pull 555 WRC, or 555 STI, or 555 WRX, etc.

My business partner Matt has vanity plates on his porsche. When we first started our businees we were dRS architects. So he chose DRS MATT. The plate came as DR SMATT. So now people just call him Dr. Smatt.

That's odd - I've ordered custom plates from them twice, and never really had an issue. . . maybe they get backlogged with all the rich kids getting new cars for x-mas.

I wonder how long the DMV out here (Reno) will take...

What's the usual charge for vanities?

I think it was only $30 or so on top of what we had to pay to register here...

I can't believe NV takes the CA way and charges based on MSRP. =/
