Default Vanity Plates? Are you kidding?
I never thought I would EVER get vanity plates. Never thought about getting them. Then, I felt this ...urge...to go the plate configurator. Why??? What is it about this car that compulsed me to get them? Help me!

Thanks. My wife thinks it's cheesy. I had to explain to her that it describes the car itself and it's code that only porsche-files would understand. I don't think I really convinced her.

i think they are fine, and fun

so long as you don't say something obnoxious, insulting or otherwise disagreeable

insider jokes and references just for car nuts are particularly cool

Anything you can do to keep said wife from driving your car, is also LexVan approved. We have a saying in the cheese business, "cheese sells!".

Personalized plates are ok if it shows some cleverness. Mine should be coming soon. I'm shocked tHat it was available, not taken already. I'll post it when I get it. Hint- spelled with a K.

I don't know if this meets your cleverness scale? But it will make more sense after I explain the meaning. Anyone guess what the plate says?

I just reserved this one for CA. 911GTS, NA991GTS and all other combos were taken. This one is transferable into the future if I ever get another 911.

Don't blame you. If my wife had that kind of coin and bought me a Ferrari I would find all kinds of ways to "thank" her.
