Default Vanity Plates

I just placed my order and my girlfriend suggested that I needed to get a vanity license plate.

I have been thinking about it and only came up with one idea. I need some inspiration.

So please tell me what your plate is.

I apologize if vanity plates are a Corvette no-no. I am a newbie and am ignorant of the proper protocol.

Be sure to get something really cool like "MY C6" or "REDVETTE" or "08C6Z51" because in case you forget, your plate will remind you of what sort of car you have!

I guess they're called "vanity plates" for a reason. Do they help those with vanity issues?

My girl suggested the same thing.

I told her that BACHLR (bachelor) would look good as a plate. She didn't find it nearly as funny as I did.

Vanity plates are cool, but I think you need to be careful as to the attention you want to draw. Me personally I don't want everyone with a hot car "challenging" me to prove a claim. My $0.02

See, you need to fill out your profile -in detail - you can leave off the last name unless it's something really tricky that we can have fun with . . .and then WE, the humble C6 Forum members will make informed, educated, snide and wistful recommendations on what your vanity plate should be.

You then, as a forum Newbie, will be obligated to pick from our best thoughts and suggestions . . .then post a picture of your newly acquired C6 proudly displaying said plate.

Sooooo....they may not exactly be forum rules . . .but we'd certainly have fun with the whole concept and you'd save the nation thousands of gallons of gasoline that we would otherwise be out burning up . . instead of spinning our neurons over your proper plate selection.
