OK...Who in VA took my plate!
I went on the VA DMV site to reserve my plate RX-8 and it was taken!! It wasn't taken last week when I checked. Why didn't I reserve it then!
Good plate choice whoever has it Now to choose from something else on my list.........

I am still trying to decide on one. I wanted something simple with a statement. RX-8 was perfect for that.
Am I one of the only women with an RX-8 on order or what? Most friends think I've lost my mind and wonder why I don't just get the BMW or Audi. I get the.....your getting a what?.....a Mazda RX-8?
I try to explain about it being the next generation rotory, ect..... and they still think it is odd that I have decided on this as my choice. It may not be an Audi, but I think it looks just as good and will have a much better engine. I am not automotive expert though.

Yeah, you are...I think there are about 8 of us total, and maybe 3 of us that frequent the boards on a regular basis.

All my female friends are like "Yeah, that's a really nice car" and they have that look on their face that says "I don't know what the hell you're talking about." All the guys just kinda stare at me and drool a bit when i tell them. It's a nice feeling. Can't wait till they actually see it.

So what's everyone else getting on their plates? I was thinking of the gaelic word for "wench" among others. I keep trying to come up with something with "rotary" or "8" in it, and everything I think of is dumb.

hi....i'm another female you can add to the list of many (or few) females we have on this forum. yeah i'm really excited about it. ever since i saw the rx-8 i've been like a big car fanatic. my friends get tired of hearing me talk about it all the time, but when i get my car, i bet they'll be begging to ride in it.

i'm not sure what i want my plate to be, but thinking about just putting my name and RX8.

Funny that you mention ZMZMZM- someone in Richmond has it on their Miata (at least they did a year ago when I last saw it).

Here's one my husband likes, that you might like as well. Seems like it fits you, from the picture.

XQUIS8



And hi AsNrx8- nice to see another female onboard!

If your gonna pick a name just from her picture keep it simple: HOT!!

But anyways, I've decided on mine L8BRAKR

I also liked: 8THWNDR

Another thing you see out here on all chicks cars (not sure if it has made it to the east coast) is the Roxy Girl stickers so you could have a dual meaning: RXY GRL

I'm assuming your name is Halley but that is a very cute name to have on a plate too.

Actually my real name is not Halley. I have a space obsession and one of my first studies was of Edmund Halleys Comet. I am not your typical female reader. I don't read Cosmo or Vogue, but I am a subscriber of Popular Science & Discover magazine. I have vast library on Space, the planets, comets, speed of light, wormholes, and many other theories, ect... along with my Conspiracy theory collection. (Another obsession) I love a good conspiracy.
I love to read up on science & technology. I happen to find the rotary engine rather facinating. I must say, if the rotary was in some ugly car, I wouldn't be so interested in getting it. Since the rotary is in a sweet looking package the obession over getting it has grown.

Try

STARX-8

or

STAR X-8


It'll combine your obsession and your gr(x)8 taste in cars! Of course many will wonder what a starks eight is, or what constellation X-8 is in and why it's so important that someone would commerate it on a plate.
Also check out this web site here to preview your plates.
