It's a little more expensive here in Texas... and we still only get 6 characters.
I think it's about $70 for the plates, then $40 MORE on your yearly registration to keep the plates.
I thought about getting 'FR4Y'
'SCHNEL' was already taken... guy here in a yellow Audi A4, I think, has that one.
Maybe 'L0L WTF'

I am converting an old mansion into a hotel in Colombia. It is turning out to be a lot more work than I ever imagined so I am not reading the forum as much.

Consider yourselves lucky. In Ontario custom plates from 6-8 letters are $280 plus $70 a year for the sticker. Got my TIB 2NR plates two years ago and now I'll have to cough up for something new. I don't think I'll ever get something vehicle specific again though. LOL I'll probably get something to do with the home based business I started that paid for this car.

I previously tried for VOTEGOP and GOPYES but they were already taken in the great state of NJ.
I have Airborne plates now though - apparently if you live in the Garden State and are a former paratrooper, you qualify for free plates with the airborne crest on them. This is why I don't move.

I prefer something subtle, most people probably wouldn't even think it was vanity.

In Pennsylvania its a 1 time fee of $20 and the plate is transferrable to your next car.
My Boxster plate reads 4SOLO2 but I need to change it to 4SOLO
I want to order a vanity plate for my tow vehicle BXTRHLR

Standing in line to register the car for the first time, I was thinking my choice for vanity plate would be simply "FUN". But, at $50/year on top of the ad valorem, I lost interest. My off the shelf tag, 3 letters 3 numbers, reads "ABE". How stoic is that?

I have thought about getting a frame reading "my other car is a minivan." It's true, and irony is funny...

To celebrate my Wife getting her Ph. D. we recently purchased a 2000 S and put "DOCNBOX" on her car. For my '98 base we just have a normal plate.
