GP Roof Number 666

I was just wondering if there is a Roof Number 666 out there somewhere?

The GP Roof Number listing on the Mini2 Forum goes from 0663 (USA) to 0667 (USA). That does not mean there isn't a 666 but it just is not on that pretty complete list.

How can you tell? Did the cars ship to countries as numerical groups? It'd be interesting to hear what the driver thinks about his number...

Unless your feeling urges to take over the world and your name can be reconfigured in ancient greek or hebrew to total 666, I wouldn't worry too much. It's just the number that came between plate number 665 and 667.

What is the fascination with the number 666? I honestly don't understand it, does it make you evil or hardcore?

666 is just one more than 665. Hey, maybe we have it all wrong...maybe it is really 999 and we're looking at it from the wrong angle.

Hmmmmmmm.:impatient

Exactly my point. I don't know why people search this number out. I see it all over, in peoples forum names to tattoos. I just don't understand it?

I understand that, sorry, I should have been more clear. That just adds fuel to the fire so to speak. That is exactly my point, why the fascination? To be evil or bad? I would tend not to want that number.
