I can't believe it. After only a month and 5 days I recieved a notice today that I can pick up our vanity plate Monday. they had advised a 3 month wait.
The WISTA J will be on the road monday.
Unless it's raining. The WISTA J is a fair weather ride only!!!!.

If I see a plate and don't 'get it' after a few seconds I generally give up...in this case I'll make an exception. Maybe it's so simple it eludes me but what is the significance of WISTA J ?

Good choice with U4EA42...I get it. In fact, my youngest son and I considered U4EA or U4IC for my car when we were selecting a vanity plate.

Look at the photo in my bio. That 30 ft Sea Ray is also the WISTA J if you can read it.
And I have a wife by that name. I get points for naming boats and cars after her.

Default Vanity plate

The vanity plate was picked up this AM. It's now official. Artic White 2007 C6 Arkansas Vanity Plate "WISTA J"

Currently garaged next to my Trailblazer SS "SUVETTE" also LS2 equipped at 395 hp. (single exhaust derated to 395)

That's 795 Hp worth of LS2 horsepower in my garage, plus another 325 in the Yukon. Totaling 1120 of GM's finest V8 ponies. A truly "green garage".

By the way my wife's nickname is Wista, and the C6 is 1/2 hers.

In Indiana you have to order by November in order to pick it up in April Which is the only time you can get one. So if I order now I can get it in April 09.
