^They're missing a few in between, so you would have to call in and check.

I saw a car with the plate 333 SSS parked outside that insurance place. So jealous. LOL

Can you just swap plates? I thought you could only renew your plate every time you renew your insurance?

You can change plates anytime, no need to renew insurance.

Mine is 788 SSS. 888 and 777 were taken before I got there.. If you're looking for the triple SSS plates from 700-900, the insurance broker near Boundary and Canada Way has them.

The holy grail for me would be "227 CYC" i'd legit offer someone $50 if they found an insurance broker with that...

I've been searching for a triple number and triple letter plate for ages...always missed out, since most places hold them for themselves, friends or family.

I started seeing LLL, NNN a few months ago and PPP, RRR, SSS recently.

Since "Q", "U", "Y", "Z" are not used and "M" was reserved for Olympic plates, has anyone seen TTT, VVV, WWW, XXX yet? I don't think those are released yet.

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".

The MR2 owners (and rx7, etc) can finally get plates that match their car

I just called in, and they said it's gone. Either it's really gone, or they're just trolling me. They currently only have TLN plates

Will R34 plates be up for grabs when it becomes legal in January?

034-xxx, xxx-GTR, xxx-SKY

Or maybe a vanity plate would be better.

Just called in a bunch more places. HUGE list here, gonna spoiler it.

No triples, some noteworthy letters: SRS, PWR, RSX

If anyone finds any SXL, SMA, or SSS plates other than the ones I already listed, please let me know. Thanks.

Spoiler!

The new format is BB0-00B, so there's not going to be R34.

SKY won't happen either since the letter Y is not used along with I O Q U Z.

Whoever is interested in pattern license plates:

I was just at 1st Ave T&T and they have 375-399 TNN, 525-549 TNN.

377 TNN is still available, 388 and 399 gone.
