E55
Euro plates look so cool- I wish we could run them here in the US instead of the standard plates.

Actually those are aussie plates, not Euro. They are similar, but Aussie plates are not as wide.

The ones I got were a variation of the euro theme - which we can also get, eg:

You don't get hassled for that by the police?

I would think that would not be a legal plate- at all.

No front plate at all either.....

No I don't get hassled one bit, been followed by State Troopers, etc

Even been pulled over for speeding, they just ask if the numbers match and car is registered.... friend was driving & got pulled over without me, no problems at all

If the gentlemen above is referring to my picture as a photoshop I can assure you whole-heartedly that is not the case, and would be happy to take 10 photos of my car if you please

I have had this setup (first on my 55 and now my 63) for roughly 1.5 years (I believe) and drive my car almost every single day when I am in town

I would have absolutely nothing to gain by lying -- I just love the look....
Carlos on here (W219CLS55) does the same thing, on both his E55 and CLS55.....

It's all good....
There are a few nice cars here, at least one of pretty much everything, handfuls of AMGs
Obviously not like Miami/Scottsdale/Newport Beach though....
