Yeah, that's better than most personalized plates. Solid work.

I thought it was just a show plate, so I looked it up and North Carolina specifically is one of the few states that allow more than simple alphanumeric characters.

I'm surprised either of those bits had the structural integrity to be bolted together.

There are two new ACRs that frequent the trackdays around here, both have the American flag plate style. One is MURICA, the other is DOWNFRC

If you asked a decade ago, never in a million years would I have believed that a simple photo of an automotive part could simultaneously make me cackle and send cold shivers down my spine. This forum has broken me.

A guy in town built one of these, same model/colors too. His camper was perfect condition though, and didn't move until it was done. Where is this at?

There's an F-type around here with "JAAAAAG" that I'm a fan of. Some friends of ours have "ACRONYM" on one car and, on the world's most inoffensively-styled Volvo wagon, "SO BEIGE".

There was one guy around here (something Brazil?) with the plate "SLO RICE" which made its rounds to cars that were neither slow nor Japanese, I always found that funny.

Never thought I'd want a minivan, but there you go. Not pictured the integrated TV screen in the passenger rear window.





Just perfect.






Probably my two favorite cars there. Honda really knocked it out of the park in the EV concepts. If any of those make it to production and bear a close resemblance to the them, I'd probably buy one in a heartbeat.




Project One is loooong.

Yeah that Honda hatch is really seriously growing on me a lot!
The mazda hatch looks... Off... Something weird about the back half proportions.
The silver mazda doesn't even look real! It looks like an augmented reality render projected on the turntable!

They are pretty small, while still looking big.

If I had to guess, I'd say about the length of an EG Civic. The coupe is about the same length as the hatch.

The Project One is a street legal F1 car. As in they took the drive train out of the F1 Car and built a shell around it to make it street legal.

That’s me! And it’s currently on a WRX which at least meets half the plate’s specifications. My Forester XT is rocking Z GERMNZ currently, which started on a BMW but is too funny to get rid of.

I'm not saying it's awesome, but I was always impressed that someone in the Bay Area (CA) managed to get STFU NUB; seen him multiple times

It's just on some beater, which makes sense

My old plates (TRAKWAGN) from my SRT8 Magnum now reside on my wifes 4cyl 2017 Sorento :saddowns:


I'm still holding out hope that I get back into a fast wagon at some point in the future to put them on, but I know deep in my heart that I'm just wasting money on the custom tags each time i renew.

It seems everyone is debuting their crazy crates today, Dodge just dropped the "HellCrate", the Hellcat is now available outside of copart wrecks:

http://autoweek.com/article/sema-show/schrodingers-hellcat-mopars-hellcrate-62-liter-hemi-box

It's loving ~$22k though, so there's that. For that price I'd try to get a Coyote up to the 700's.
