RX8 Vanity License Plate Idea

I have always hated vanity plates; just a philosophical problem that I have with this superficial, self-oriented society. But I have thought about a few interesting license plates that would be fun to have with the RX8. I won't divulge all my ideas, at least up front, but here are a few:

* HELOROTO (reference to the Motorola marketing campaign)
* NOCYL (for No Cylinders)
* 9000RPM
* MELIKEY (derogatory to Asians, but cute/funny nonetheless)

i don't get why "YA RLY" is funny, much less what it means...

is that a redneck person saying "yah really," or "yearly?"

i hate vanity plates that make no sense....

REVS2 9K - I LIKE! Wish I had seen that before. Others come to mind - MAX 9K, UP2 9K, SCREMN 9K, - I tried 9000 RPM but it was taken.

That's super obscure. Must be a local thing. For some reason, the first thought that came to my mind was 'pirate', as in 'YARRRR MATEY!'

Here's mine! And several times I've had other 8 owners honk and wave at me, presumably because of my plates since several have PM'ed me to tell me about it. LOL

The picture of the RX-8 with YA RLY was my car...sadly the plate is on my Mazda6 now since I traded in the 8...got pulled over CONSTANTLY and gas was $$$$$ and i was about to have to drop $1000 on tires.

I can assure you I'm not a redneck, just an internet dork (have a "<3" tattoo, too).

People around here (north atlanta) ask me what it means, they usually say "yarrrrly" or "yearly."

my license plate is also evidence of my internet dorkdom. BRNIN8R, if you're a fan of strong bad you may get it. but most people have no idea what it means...shockingly 90% of sport bikers know what it means and remark on it.

Cute? No...not really.
How about:

"IMRACST"
"JMCROW"
"BIGGOT8"
"SLVSHIP"
"KUKLUX8"


or just plain "1DUMASS"

All in reference to your idiotic,and transparent, post and mentality! What year is it? 1969 or Two-Thousand and ******* SEVEN? Did I fall asleep and miss the CIVIL RIGHTS ACT of 1964? How about the *******, Emancipation Proclamation of 1863? What about Loving v. Virginia? Did I 'mass-ah? Should I do your ******* laundry, now? Or maybe star in a Kung Fu movie for you? You can easily dub in another voice, if you LIKEY? How 'bout some Railroads? Can I build you some railroads, you ******* ignorant monad?!
