Default Good special plate selection?

I'm in Ohio and looking for special plates, I found "Fast s2k" is available, what do you think?

to me "Fast s2k" seems somewhat plain... I personally like very catchy or clever plates.

There's a bunch of threads with ideas. Search on "vanity plates" and that brings up some. I'm brainstorming, too. If you like FAST S2K, then go for it! It's simple but you'll probably still like it years from now.

Some others I've read or thought of are (assuming 7 letters/numbers):

9KREDLN
S2FST4U
SEXYS2K
S TATIC (ecstatic)
S CITED (excited)
1FSTS2K
S2PRFCT (it's too perfect or S2 perfect)
SWT S2K
S2AWESM

Just be aware that the message on your license plate can influence whether you get a ticket or get off with a warning when stopped for traffic violations.

My next special plate (already ordered) is going to say GRAMPAA on it (with a frame that says "I may get older, but I refuse to grow up"). We'll see if it helps me get out of any future tickets.

My green CRX has "HURY UP" (limit of 6 chars in Texas) for its license plate..... Any time I've ever been pulled over in that car, it has resulted in a ticket... No questions asked..... (granted, the car is even more like a crotch rocket than the S2k -- it has a turbo and a different engine in it).

My old Integra GS-R (and now my S2k) have a plate that says "GIVE UP" on it... The plate frame around it says, "Why don't you" on the top line and "before I win?" on the bottom line.... to read: "Why don't you GIVE UP before I win?" if you read it top to bottom, including the plate itself.

I have gotten out of at least 2 tickets when I had it on my GS-R. I also went to visit a friend on an air force base at one point, and the SP at the gate said, "Give up?? That's usually what WE tell people to do!"

Thought it was humorous, so I've kept it, even though I was VERY close to getting "S2K 2 9K" for my next plate.

I read in a street racing article once about a corvette with a license plate that read "lv2xlr8" i think or something like that which came out "love to accelerate" I thot that was pretty clever. I used to have a subaru and my friend told me to get "superru" as my plate, but i got the S, and never got to use that one. good luck with your decision 03Sl-s2k.

I'm not a big fan of personal plates, but I saw one the other day that caught my eye. It was something like this: " MNWMWNW", which, when in the font that NC uses on their plates, looked like an indecipherable bunch of vertical and diagonal lines. I'm not sure if it could help you get out of a ticket on a technicality if the cop mis-wrote the license plate number, but I'm sure that was the intent.
