I heard from someone on a different forum that the museum will eventually call and ask you but I wanted to make sure.

Thank you!!!
Are you having Museum delivery? If so, there is a form for you and your dealer to complete with information for the plaque. 24 total letters and spaces. Cost is included in Museum Delivery fee.

If not, then you need to check with your dealer to make sure it is in your order. It is option BV4, Plaque, Personalized with your Name and VIN. Cost is $200.

Here's mine:



Shane from the museum called about 2 weeks before build to confirm what I wanted on the plaque and how I wanted it.

Do you have to go with all capitalized letters?

Heard from the NCM yesterday about my plaque, thinking I'm just going to put my name (James Flaagan) in the all-caps setup.

I'd go more personalized, but I don't yet know the character of the car, if that makes sense. It took two years of driving my '01 (got it in '07) before I'd really gotten a sense for the car's personality.
