Recently sighted on a Mini Cooper...

MININI

Get it... MINI (Cooper) + MANINI (da small reef fish; also pidgin for "small time").

Very cool.

PUG 4ME on a small 2-seater sports car, either a Honda S2000 or Mazda Miata. I think it was the Honda.

Re: Vanity Plates

I saw this vanity plate a few weeks ago when I was walking. It said LIKIKEA (Like I care)

Look carefully...the fourth letter was probably inserted after the fact. On file it's probably LIK KEA.

Re: Vanity Plates

I saw a truck with the plate "walker". It would have made sense if that truck was a Dodge Ram, but it was a Chevy truck (I'm talking in reference to the TV show 'Walker, Texas Ranger')

Re: Vanity Plates

My Mom has had WDTSF for her plate for about 15 years...if you ask, you will figure it out.

I have had GRT WHT for my old white ford, GLDYLX for my Lincoln, and TRNGWHL for my old bike.

We see a LOT of ****- BCH, for whatever Beach, but I have seen a lot where the BCH=Bi*ch,lol.

FUAMA2 could be FUAMATU, as in Chris FUAMATU-MAAFALA, a local boy who played full-back in the NFL.

Re: Vanity Plates

I see some really cool ones sometimes when out driving, but can't recall any of them at this moment. I don't have one and never have. I really don't wish to bring any attention to myself in this whacked-out world, when out and about. I wouldn't even buy a new car that had the gold lettering when I saw one on the lot. (Camry) It's like....if I ever win the lottery I won't be driving around in the flashiest car or anything, but will still look like everyone else.

Yeah, I'm a very careful old biddy I guess.

There's lots of advantages in anonymity vs. calling attention to your car. I once declined an offer of "free" gold lettering on my new car. The chrome lettering from the manufacturer was good enough for me!

Your car might not get stolen, but acts of vandalism are all too common these days. Often fueled by jealousy and envy.

Similarly, I don't favor cars like a Benz, BMW, Audi, or Porsche. I'm more inclined toward Japanese imports like Honda, Toyota, Mazda, etc. 4-door sedans with automatic transmissions - my five-speed stick shift days are long past.

Re: Vanity Plates

Seen just a few minutes ago on a gold Cadillac Escalade, with a driver who was pretty obviously a "high maintenance" lady:
