Tesla Roadster vanity license plates

James · 03-08-2009, 11:38 AM

If you see any good images of vanity license plates on Tesla Roadsters, post them here.

With a car like the Roadster, it certainly calls for a vanity license plate.
Martin got one that says MR.TESLA and Elon has one also. I have seen a few others like TESLA88 (sig #88).

So now I have to pick mine and I am having a tough time coming up with something. In my state we can have 7 numbers/letters. You can do less than 7 if you want. The word TESLA is already taken.

Here are some suggestions. Please add any good ones that you know of or suggestions of your own.

TESLAAA
LITHIUM
LI-ION
53-KWH
VOLTAGE
AMPERES
KWH-XXL
09TESLA
PURE EV
FAST EV
TESLA S
TESLA R

Here are a few that I think are already on some other spots of the forum:

I briefly looked into:

FU OPEC

But the DMV web site wouldn't allow it. :-)

When I checked, all of these were already taken in CA:
ICELESS
WATTSUP
BOLTAGE
PLUGNGO

I was thinking "53 KWH" too... And it is still available in CA!
Someone will probably snap it up soon.

(I am not sure which plates are taken in Washington state)

I think my top two choices for now are:

TESLAAA

53 KWH

'BEANO' could be slightly amusing (gas relief)

Someone did get "NOOPEC" and someone got "OPECNO" as well, so some less harsh variations do get through.

I believe I've seen some variant on "NO GSLN" locally. I hear for some reason "NO GAS" is not allowed, at least in the state of Washington.

Hopefully "53 KWH" will become obsolete in the near future.

If you're into alternate spellings, one might consider the Japanese romaji "TESURA"

James, this will be mine when I get my California car, but perhaps it's still available in Washington if you like it:

BAT R EE

I like it even better than "battery" (which wasn't available) because you have to think for a second or two....

That is one reason I might avoid 53 KWH. It does not stand the test of time.
In fact, we sort of want it to become obsolete.

What do you think of "LITHIUM" ? That works in my state. Or does it imply that the driver might be on anti-depressants?

"LI-ION" also works, but it sort of reads too quickly like the word for the animal, "LION".

My other idea is "KWH-XXL".
My Hymotion plug-in Prius has a vanity plate that says "MPG-XXL".
