Custom German license plate poll
North Carolina doesn’t require a front plate so you will occasionally see people with euro front plates. For the hell of it I had a custom German plate made for my minivan. Some of you may remember that thread. It gets noticed and occasionally random people will ask me where I got it. It’s always fun to tell them I stole it off a car while I was in Hamburg. Then as often happens when they think I’m being serious I let them know I was joking. <img src="http://sigforum.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->. Most of the time people ask what it means. <BR><BR>A new car means it’s time to get a fun new plate. Being a low riding, high revving car with a black leather interior and a loud exhaust these are the finalists. <BR><BR><a href="https://postimages.org/" target="_blank"><IMG class="inline_image" SRC="https://i.postimg.cc/1XJTHh1M/IMG-3255.jpg"> </a><BR><BR>I’m really leaning towards #1. <BR><BR>#1 <BR><a href="https://postimages.org/" target="_blank"><IMG class="inline_image" SRC="https://i.postimg.cc/0yZPr34k/IMG-3410.jpg"> </a><BR><BR>#2 <BR><a href="https://postimages.org/" target="_blank"><IMG class="inline_image" SRC="https://i.postimg.cc/Vkzzf1DZ/IMG-3411.jpg"> </a><BR><BR>#3 <BR><a href="https://postimages.org/" target="_blank"><IMG class="inline_image" SRC="https://i.postimg.cc/6673g9md/IMG-3421.jpg"> </a><BR><BR>#4 <BR><a href="https://postimages.org/" target="_blank"><IMG class="inline_image" SRC="https://i.postimg.cc/1XVLH7Mq/IMG-3420.jpg"> </a><BR><BR>#5 <BR><a href="https://postimages.org/" target="_blank"><IMG class="inline_image" SRC="https://i.postimg.cc/R0N7Yr5q/IMG-3415.jpg"> </a>Which is your favorite?#1#2#3#4#5

Here is an actual one, so you would likely want to replace 189 with 46.

R3VO3VOM is what I put on the European plate on my Porsche.

In your rear view mirror it reads MOVE OVER

I like the second one (and smlsig's tag).

BTW, where are you getting custom German plates?

When I had an AP1 Honda S2000 I wanted to get “RX9KQD” meaning Rx: 9000 rpm daily.

Get your collective minds out of the gutter. "Fü" is the city code for Fürth, a Munich suburb. My ancestors are from there, so I got this for my BMW:

Haha! There's a 90s F250 in my neighborhood -- crew cab, long bed -- with big text at the top of the windshield: "Boobie Bouncer"

It's also sporting custom license plates:

I don't recall ever seeing yellow plates in Germany unless they were on cars from the UK or Netherlands.

When I lived in Trier, which is near Bitburg (BIT is their plate prefix), there was an SUV with "BIT*CH69" and it was their real plate. Always wanted to steal that one.

I have "FW-190D" on my M5. It's not a Europlate though.

I grew up in Fuerth so I am very familiar with this one, see one at least once a week when I am there. Its not a Munich suburb, it is west of Nurnberg. Lang lebe Franken!

Never actually looked at a map, just was what I was told. I stand corrected.

OK, not trying to hijack the thread, but while we’re on the subject the Brain Trust might make a suggestion for my newly acquired Bimmer -

I have an ‘88 635CSI. light gray, manual trans. Currently no front plate, as none are required in PA. Shark is almost too easy - ideas?

When I get one I’ll have to figure out how to post it -

I'd take Nr. 1, the "Schattenparker"... Smile

BTW, the "SHA" is the german plate prefix for "Schwäbisch Hall" (county / Landkreis), 50 miles from my place and the county where my wife came from. There they sometimes like to combine it with SHA-RK 1234...
