There's a thread (some 49 pages long) on this topic on the lotus forum here: http://www.lotustalk.com/forums/f3/g...ty-plate-1406/

Not entirely unrelated, you might find some of it useful. Lot of the usual play on words. For lotus owners you'll obviously find a lot of hints at power to weight ratio.

I'm still trying to figure out what to get for mine.

* something about me? (like "mjf")
* something connecting my car to where I work (I work on a game that has "Black Lotus" as an iconic card)
* something humerous (like "NoTktPls")
* a message to the driver behind me (like "sorry")

Oddly enough "- -" is apparently a legal plate in WA, but hasn't been taken yet. I suspect it wouldn't pass a human inspection.

One that I'm leaning towards is IMIN1ST. I also like ARANCIO and its available.

I thought GUDLIFE might be funny but its taken.

I see that NOWRYS is availabe. That might be a good one too.

I just need to get my plates in so that I can apply for my personalized ones. You all better not steal my plates!

That thread was very helpful. My list just grew by a ton. There is a top pick I have that I took out b/c I was so surprised its not taken. I'll post it after I get my plates and am ready to send in the application. Here are my other thoughts. I need to pick the top 2 to put in in case my first choice isn't approved. Here they are roughly in my preference order:
NOWRYS
VELOCE
IMIN1ST
ARANCIO
MOVERT
2MCH
EGEAR
FSTBULL
V10
HIGHPWR
ONRAILS
-CHRMD-
HYSTRNG
520XAWD (520HP, AWD car)
OMGFAST (Probably wouldn’t be approved)
2MCH
MORPWR
PULLGS
RLRCSTR (Rollercoaster)
PUR3FUN (Pure Fun)
-PEEL- (since its orange color)
VRM0VRM

for the E55, I've always been a big fan of SICKNE55 but have never pulled the trigger on it. Something 'orange' would be cool for your car. unfortunately I am not creative enough to come up with one!

I always liked "90INA25" For my dream sports car but 1. I don't have it yet and 2. i don't think it would go over well with local law enforcement

Great shot of the S550.

My old Honda had "NOTRQUE".
I wanted something like "DIVDBY0" for my Infiniti but I never got around to it.
I am going to do another on my second S2000... REDAT9K, or something...

I think they're fun when they're clever, but most people find them conceited.

I had SAYGDBY a while back. A buddy of mine had WUTWUZAT on his bike out in NC. That was great, but you'd need 8 letters.
