Don't try to say too much (the fewer characters the better), mine are "OT". My former plate was J73 (first initial and year of birth).

I think most people on the road see the car and probably know its a 911, so be creative.
i like HUBRIS, but that seems to be asking for a drubbing from the gods, or at least a gadfly to sting my steed.

i also thought of NEVITBL. again, being a big nerd, i liked the line from the matrix: "that, mr. anderson, is the sound of inevitability."

They let you put that sort of thing on a plate where you live????

They'd never let you put *****R on a plate here in California

Muhahaha! I did.

I'm impressed you knew what it was. I was making those puppies when there were less than a few dozen of us in the world doing so.... now everybody and their dog can make them.

I have my CA DENDRMR plate hanging on my office wall at work.

Well, the plate didn't get him arrested, the drag racing got him arrested.

Worse plate I ever saw was on a Jag - "POORME"
Best plate was on a Porsche Turbo - "Tah Tah"

And I just have the state issued Pennsylvania plate. I've been considering a vanity plate only because I can never remember my plates and every time I drop a car for service using the night drop I end up in a dark parking lot trying to scribble the plate number on the envelope. It's an age thing I am sure, can't remember and can't see.....

Also, if your state needs front plates, thought RVO VOM would be kind of neat . . .
(I saw R3VO 3VOM on a euro plate on the wall in a dentist's office last week)

That would be MT NESTER.
