When I first bought my car in the late 80's I had NO SUB.

I'd go with what they issue and call it a day!

I'm not a fan of vanity plates, they usually don't mean much to the guy behind you.

I'm with you Ed. Just the name "vanity plates" tells me they are not for me.

What about "911Car" or "0911Car"?

Never heard of "Vanity" plates (WTF?).

Custom, or as you originally noted , "collector" plates (which, 'round' here, are different from Custom Plates) are your personal call.

...to use the term Vanity?...well,..mmm.

Is this what they're called elsewhere (governmentally-speaking)? Or is this, in fact, a personal term?

I say get whatever you feel like getting.

My car's plates look like personalized (i.e. "vanity") license plates because 911 appears in there, and it's a 911.

I think the plate should represent the owner if you get one.

"Cowrera"?

Around here, they're called custom plates.
