Never realised how much of a flex personalised car reg plates are

Was looking at personalised plates today. The plate "24 RED" is worth like £45k, more than most peoples' car. Generally plates with fewer characters are worth more, saw a plate at the weekend that was "92 A", thought it was neat but didn't really mire. Next time I see a plate with 3 characters I'll be mirin hard knowing it likely cost £100k.

Any miscers have a baller number plate? How does it work in 'murica?

Supply and demand, less characters means far fewer variations.

Maybe he means like trading them or something? Because they do cost like $50 from the government- but I guess if someone had the one you wanted and their was a market for it you could buy it at a higher price.

Here the government sell them at auction, companies buy and sell them and people even buy them as investments.

In Australia, single digit number plates sell in the millions

I mire so hard when I see them, especially when they're on an expensive supercar

This. Nobody cares about the car you are driving, when you see a dollar sign or a single digit pull up even if its a honda civic, you step aside peasant!
