I like it. We were going to get BSTWGN if our first choice had been taken. Luckily we got my first choice.

Our next LV trip is planned for 7/22 and we will likely have the E55T. Can't take Jonathan in the trunk of the SLK.

I dunno, I think vanity plates draw unwanted attention to your car, which unfortunately in this day and age can be a bad thing. Unless it is cryptic enough that 99.9% will not even notice that it is a custom plate, I'd pass.

Let the beast itself do your talking for you. No need to advertise.

Yeah, I agree.
Oddly enough, the only car of mine that has a Vanity plate is my 1986 Corolla GT-S, which reads "HACHI-6". Not too many people know about these little cars except other enthusiasts or those that are fans of the Japanese anime "Initial-D". The car is known as the HachiRoku in Japan, as they tend to refer to the chassis number rather than the name of the car in order to identify the generation. This one is an AE86. HachiRoku means Eight Six in Japanese, hence "HACHI-6". For the Benzo, it is much higher status vehicle, and people might get the wrong impression.

I would imagine it would take forever to find pics of custom plates like those. It's easier to make'm yourself at: http://www.acme.com/licensemaker/lic...7&r=1640991310
