I have an 02 996 Cab, and was thinking of these license plates:
P9962
P996 02
Or some spacing variation of those. I know the 996 doesn't have an official Mark 2 like the 997 and 991, but given that the headlights and engine were changed in 02, I kinda feel like it works. What do you guys think?
I'm not sure it's officially a Mk2? The wikipedia page doesn't list it as having a MK designation (1 or 2), while other models do. I have no idea where to find out if it's official.

It is the 996.2 or mk2, mk II. Wikipedia is open to anyone authoring content, so it can say anything. It isn't an authoritative source. Adrean Streather's Porsche 996 Companion has some good information if you want to pick up a decent book.
I opted to keep it simple with P9962, as that's close to what the stock vintage (black and yellow) plates were issued with. They actually had a letter with 5 numbers, but that way to anyone who doesn't know it looks like a standard issue plate.
DBJoe I totally agree, hence the subdued plate, whereas having a more involved plate draws more attention.
One of the VERY few things that California does well, is not making vanity plates expensive. The plate only costs $50, and each additional year of use is $40/year. Now at least my plate will match the black Carrera writing on the back like Nacra's plate.

Your plate is not whats going to draw the attention. The car itself will, regardless what plate you have. In CA you have to pay yearly to use personalized plates, this goes for regular plated too?
To get a plate that isn't the standard white plate you have to payu a yearly fee. On the plate I'm getting the customized name isn't an additional cost, for some reasons other plates have an additional yearly charge for a customized name.
While I think they're fun to look at, I would never get one for two reasons:
1. Why pay the govt even more in taxes(license plates are a tax) and custom ones cost more than std ones
2. It's easier for people to remember you, i.e "Yes officer I don't know what kind of car it was but it had a cute little license plate that said xxxxx"
Custom plates are $90-99 per year in Texas.
Just not worth it to me.
Amateur Radio plates with your callsign are free.
I just don't understand the price difference.
You can get Amateur Radio plates in Texas, with the same callsign, for multiple vehicles.
I thought about doing this at one time because it would be cool to have the same plate for all my vehicles.
But I found out that it wouldn't work for the Houston Toll Road Authority.
Their system couldn't handle multiple vehicles with the same plate.
Love it!
Here in Vic (AUS) you don't need to pay yearly fees on the plate itself. The most coveted plates are "heritage plates" which are just numbers - lower the number the higher the price...
E.g a 3 digit number plate might cost you upwards of 200k and a 2 digit closer to 500k... 1 digit can be a few million...
I'm thinking of getting one here in NJ, which is a one time fee of $50. I haven't tested whether any of these are available yet, but here's what I'm thinking. Pretty standard and some are stolen from others here.
