Default personalized plate

Ok---I could use some suggestions. I am going to apply for my PA personalized plate. I would like some opinions. My current choices are:

wanapla
btchn
slvrfox
nomercy

I am picking up my sebring silver 99 cpe on Friday and because I am going to tagman I can get my reg immediately which means I do not have to wait until the reg comes in the mail--so I can send for my plate immediately. So can you pick one of mine or give me some good ideas for something else???

Thanks
lori

Depending on how old you are, I suggest FICA as I use my Social Security check to pay for it.

Some folks might take it the wrong way with "wanapla" and a lady driving . Of your choices i'd pick btchn. Do a search and you'll find a list of 3400 personalized plates for corvettes. Posted by ac54me. Good luck with your choice.

You might have problems getting the btchn plate to go through the censors, but if you can get it, that would be my choice.

Personalized plates are so personal - without knowing anything about you, it's really difficult to make any suggestions. Personally, I like plates that address something about you rather than the car.

Everybody already knows it's a Corvette, and that it's a fast sportscar, so stating that is obvious. What's not obvious is that the car is yours and not your husband's, or that you love to drive it, or that it's your dream car, or that you've wanted one for a long time, etc.

Some numbers say words, or parts of words - like 8,4 & 2. That's especially helpful if you have a message and you're limited in length. This is my plate...or should I say PL8? See what I mean?



How about LV2XLR8 (live or love to accelerate)

Here's another - U4IA (Uphoria)

I laugh when I see any vehical with a "Personal Plate" that states the obvious...ie
REDVETTE
VWTOREG on a VW Toreage or how ever they are spelled
Find something personal and befitting of you.
Check my sig for mine.

If you can get BTCHN past the Censors, as said earlier...its not to bad.

I think it means For Death Row

A girl at work actually went home the other night and came back to work with about 6 different plate choices for me. UGOGRL was pretty cute and then there was YIPEEEE..and another was LUKYLDY--which fits me perfect as I feel very lucky to have found this car...I do still like BTCHN and I sort of dropped WANAPLA--I don't think I want a plate with an attitude--I have one of my own I don't need to advertise it. I was also looking at LITNING (it's Sebring Silver). I also like PURFECT because it is. I do still like NOMERCY to (to which my brother says fits me perfect) Just about every plate I think of really fits me or my car--I am just having a hard time chosing..I have time to figure it out. My title will not be here for about 2 weeks so I have time to think about it.

I have never met anyone in my life (besides this forum) that thought custom plates were so cool. I think they are rather lame. I would agree, there are some very unique ones out there that have been funny, but for the most part I think they are lame. Don't get all upset, that's just my opinion is all.

I don't get upset at stuff like that. Everyone has an opinion---just like i do not like that stick on wood crap that they put in cars---it's my opinion that doesn't mean it is everyone's..

Of the ones you listed, I would go with "NOMERCY"

I hope you would actually put a space in it though, so it reads..."NO MERCY".
