I also thought about the plate WOT 247." Wide open throttle 24/7" but did not get it.
I briefly thought about Negative Return on Investment until a friend pointed out it would look like this on my car.
NEG ROI

^ probably a good move

BY BY COP is no longer avialable in Ohio. Just couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger on it. I used to know a guy who had that on his Ferrari F40 back in the 90's.

Good choice.
The plates I've had on this car for 12 yrs.....below.
I am a fan of the plates being car specific......was fortunate to get "AMG" on the E55 and the wife's C4SCab has "911Cab".

A friend has C4S on his Porsche "BRUTUS" on a RS4 and "YEABABY" on his Mini.

I have "TOY" on my '04 996 TT Cab. My 991S X51 Cab which is built and waiting for a ship will have "TOY TOO" on it. I already have the plates on my BMW and it will get new plates. We can transfer personalized plates between cars in British Columbia.

I usually go with a sports motif. My 996 TT is CU TGRS 1 for my beloved Clemson Tigers and I have a Cincinnati Bengals plate on my BMW.

On my 996 C2, I had an Eagle Scout plate, that got me out of a speeding ticket once. Sadly, they nuked those last time I needed plates!

My 250hp Red/Black 87' 930 has a black Texas plate with "VIEL" ("just right" in German). It's 600hp twin Red/Black 996 X50 has "ZUVIEL" ('too much"). They both rock.

At one time I had "TOP" as the vanity plate on the 996Turbo.
Turns out you would see boxes and bins marked "Top" for parts used on the 996 Turbos at the factory in Weissach.
