LOL... you're right, Mark, the MINI community would just smile...

But much of the gen pop would stare at the tag and the car and go "REALLY ??? "

I'm just about to send in a request for 'MAC MINI' in PA. (I'm an Apple fan.) Hope I can get it!

For those in Pennsylvania, you can query the BMV database to see if a plate is available before filing your form.

http://www.dot4.state.pa.us/centers/vanityPlate.shtml

Click on the "Step 2" link at the bottom of that page to try different combos to see if they're available.



I just ordered mine!!

Arizona has the same thing:

Choose "check my personalized plate choice" and click the button and you're on your way....

Please pardon a softop interloper, but I saw others in the thread

What I may have lacked in creativity of the Vanity Tag is partially offset in the mounting thereof.
