On a base Cayman, no less! Guess he/she has the plate if they ever get a real one!

And that's the rub. A true GT4 owner in North Carolina would love to have this plate, but it's already taken.

Sorta analogous to cyber squatting and dovetails with the idiotic re-badging phenomena.

Hoping to never see a GT3 Touring re-badged as an R (but fear they may be out there).

This is a plausible scenario. I was guilty of something similar once. I was on the wait list for 986 Boxster S. So, got myself personalized plates ('Boxter S'); and, had them on a .... Miata! Yes, it was lame! Wouldn't do it again! :-) Besides, I have grown out of personalized plates!
