A couple of days ago i saw a new white porsche (model escapes my mind atm) with the plates '15'...then a couple of cars along, parked on the side of the road, i saw a Audi R8 with the plates '16'. the plates looked pressed outwards (appeared to be popping out, if that makes more sense).

Anyone know how much they would cost? im quite curious.

> 100X the value of your car!

Sometimes seen as an investment or the ultimate in vanity plates.

Very subjective, but get onto the Pickles Website for values of what they sold for at the most recent Prestige Car Auction.

What exactly does "you wish" mean Turk1?

Can be seen in many different ways lol...I once had some random chick come to my house and take photos of my car, posing with it and all claiming it was her car, changed her bebo name to "UW33SH" aswell hahaha, my mate pointed it out to me becuase he was like wtf isnt that your car :D

As for the plate, its a pretty uhmm... "stuck up" style plate if you get what I mean :banana:

my mates brother had 'FARQUE' on his 87 xf falcon about 18-20 years ago. He sold the plates for 15k in about 94'. I did see these at a car show not long after that but cant remember what car they were on. Im sure he wouldnt be allowed to have them now.

About 4 months ago the plates 'IMPORTD' were for sale...for $500 odd

Now, i don't know about you guys but i'd rather pay $10,000 for 'IMPORTD' then $10,000 for 'LEXUAL' (Lexus/Sexual) as seen on ebay and mentioned in above posts.

What i'm really trying to say is that there are some very greedy people out there who would rob you for leave you with a bit of metal and a nice yearly fee to pay to DPI/RTA, don't fall for the trap of "it's unique", because when you think about it...everyone's number plate is unique...durr.

Here is a photo (~2 years ago) of another 'F You' plate, owned by 'The Shark', some of the Gold Coast members might know of him.

Just bought "MY06XT" plates for my 'new' second-hand daily Forester.

Couldn't believe they were still available (as other similar ones were already taken).

Costs $99/year (tax deductible for bus.)

It'll help one day when I sell the XT.

My plates came with the r31 when i bought it.

The front says MYSKY1 but the back is MYSKYI so my old man reckons it stands for My Sky-Line haha

I guess we'll never know!

I got UHU55Y Number plates :laugh: haha

not rocket science to know what that says.

+ Side: random chicks drive past saying U HUSSY ! lol

- Side: Girlfriend slaps me across the head every time it happens LOL

number plates are hell expensive, true story,

in japan some dude owns a plate thats just "8"

cost him $7,000,000 AUD to get it (or around that, definately a few mill)

because in japan everyone believes 8 to be the "lucky number"

generally number plates ( with just 1 on it, or 666 or something) go for anywhere between 10-25k

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
