Does anybody have custom plates on their 928? Would love to hear what some of them are.

On my Euro '92 I am actually running Euro plates (kind of doubt that is legal, but I have had several folks pull me over for other stuff and when I say something about it they are like, "I don't care.")...

It is an "D" plate, so in the blue on the far left there is a D for Germany, then the custom part of it is:

TX followed by a space w/ each of the Euro registration and inspection stickers, then 92GTS which is my real custom plate number. I'll see if I can find a pic of it tomorrow and post it...

There's more.

Welcome to the forum.

Read the New Visitor FAQ topic to learn what ENZO means.

I get the impression that in the USA a custom plate is not too expensive.

I paid 1200GBP for the plate on my car which is as close to JDS 928 S as I could afford.

Plates with fewer numbers and letters (very old plates) can cost tens of thousands of pounds.

Can you request a particular number/letter combination in the USA ? Here you can only use a plate that has been previously issued.

So there is an active market in people selling desirable plates. Which can be transferred from one vehicle to another .

The plates from 1965 onwards always had some form of year identifier , and limits what combinations of numbers and letters that are available.

You can't use a plate on your car which makes you can appear younger than it really is.

In most states yes you can. As long as it's not CURRENTLY in use you can have any combination you want, within certain limits like no more than 6 or 7 characters (depending on the state).

And, they have a censor group so nothing that could be deemed offensive.

Mine say "V8 928" with a Texas star between V8 and 928.

Mine reads 928 EH. It`s a Canadian car.

Lucky people !! The goverment here took a dim view of custom plates, but then realised they could make a lot of money selling plates from cars that had been scrapped, these being desirable, low number/letter combinations.

Now thay have auctions to obtain the best prices.

The UK press car "THE 928S" plate was up for sale some while ago, for some thing like 10,000GBP.

I see 928 S is available here at the moment, perhaps if I win the lottery :-)

Here in Louisiana John you can have what you want for around $25/yr as long as it is unique and not offensive.

I own PEK 911L, KLP 3D in the UK and my Father has ART 3....plates in the UK is a very big expense try buying 131NGO. (BINGO)

Here in TX, most of the good 928 combinations are taken, BUT, there is what they call the "T" plate design, where there is a "T" on the far left with a different color background (T for Texas), and it opens up many of the good combinations. I just checked and I could get "T 928S", but I don't want to pay $95 extra per year, so not gonna happen.

It's handled through www.myplates.com

Don,

Maybe they have gone up in price I think mine was $80/year extra and that seemed fair to me considering our registration is only like $55...in CA it is based on value and my GTS's would cost more than $400/year to register.

MUCH cheaper than in GB for sure!
