Cool Got my new plates today => [R XLR 8]

They finally came today after waiting a couple months- I didn't want to jinx it and mention them until they actually showed up.

What do you think?

Thanks all... I was hoping for something that was subtle enough to make you think for a second, but not too cryptic.

Illinois makes it tough to be creative- you can't mix numbers within words, and any number(s) must be at the end with a space between them and the letter... which eliminated a bunch of ideas I had with '8', '4', and '2' mixed into the letters.

A gf gave me that nick and it brings back great memories.

Hopefully

It's down to the wire...either a Titanium or Silver RX8 -or- S2000 in darker Silver or Suzuka Blue

I have not driven the S2000 yet, that will be the decision maker.

Strangest thing too, the Honda people are 10x better to work with than the Mazda folks - and these dealers are both operating under the same ownership.

Too bad because RX8RG8R would be good.
