Vanity (personalized) plates..... Who else has em?

[fredo]

I ordered a vanity plate for my 2005 Mini Cooper yesterday. It will arrive in 3-4 weeks.
My first one ever ! "05 MIN"

That's a swell plate.

Are you anywhere near Charleston?

Mike, I'm actually up in the Greenville area. If your ever this way, hit me up. I really want to do some fun roads driving soon.

NJ was nice enough to let me know that the plate I requested was denied because "Plate combo you requested is reserved for other categories" whatever the hell that means. Of course this is after they processed the charge on my credit card-- which they'll be happy to refund within the next TWO billing cycles.

Back to the drawing board...

What did you request KG?

05 ZHP on a Phils plate.

Now I have to decide if it's going to be 05 ZHP on a standard plate, or whether I wait for October and snag Marc's E46 ZHP plate.

I noticed today that the state of Kansas cashed my check for my " JGT ZHP " plate. Meaning if I'm lucky I'll actually have it by November or so. When it expires. Photo to follow

By november?! Why does it take some states so long? I change mine every year, got them in like 8 days last month.

^Because they work with all of the speed and efficiently we've come to expect from state motor vehicle agencies.

I was being facetious, but only slightly. I've never seen anything like this state. Just moved down here last year, thought it'd take an hour to re-title my car and get a new plate. WRONG. Kansas, and I don't know how they manage this, has a policy where if there is a lien on the car, they don't allow the bank to hold the title. The state does. So, when you move here, you have to go to your bank in your former state, and convince them to surrender title to the state of Kansas. That took 3 weeks. Their answer when you ask what if your bank won't do it? You're screwed.

Damn that is messed up. But it seems like a lot of states take a long time from what I've seen here, and heard from out of state friends. Maybe I'm just spoiled, Though it probably helps here that our state prison inmates make all license plates.

Ordered my personal plate for the ZHP. Hopefully it'll come in a few weeks.
