I miss my SRT-4's, I had two of them, then switched into the S2000. The S2000 and the SRT-4 look great !

I'm pretty sure they're some sort of "classic" reissue. Looks much better than the standard white plate on most colors imo.

 

They are vintage california vanity plates.

 

 

I got a lot of negative reactions from this plate so I had to get rid of it. I thought it was funny, but apparently a lot of people thought I was showing off.

 

They charge annually for them here and I'm totally against my local city, county, state or the feds taking a single extra penny from me. Vanity plates also make it easier to memorize my plate when I go streaking by in the fast lane. Cold day in hell before I buy them.

 

Yeah, I think we have kind of an odd setup here. They cost $100 on a one-time basis. Once you make your selection, you OWN that custom plate for as long as you want. We replace plates every 7 years because the reflectivity wears off so the state requires it. I am not sure if I will have to pay the $100 again or if they will re-issue my new plates with the same custom plate.

I plan to keep the car for a LONG time so I guess I will find out. Once a car is 20 years old here, you can get "collector" plates on them which are a one time $100 fee as well but you don't have any more annual registration or "tags" fee. If you have an old car it is a pretty good deal because the minimum fee is $45 per year so it pays for itself quickly if you have an old hoopty you want to keep driving. My S2000 was getting close to that before I sold it. I'd like to keep the Cayman for 20 years and then just add to the garage if something strikes my fancy.

 

I lack creativity so this is what I wound up with. RC also happens to be my initials.
