LMAO, did I tell u that one time I caught our favorite revenue collector having lunch in Kdale… in my Red Charger.

Figured I’d show some solidarity—opened the valves, let that V8 sing a few times and blew past him a few times.

Keep in mind, the stock HEMI exhaust is so loud it can't be run at Laguna Seca on most days.

Bro just sat there, probably thinking about how he’d slap a ticket on my US plated company car if he could. Stay mad, buddy.

If I see him I'll take another lap for the culture.

There was a 240SX from Seattle or AB (I forget which) that got towed back to the border, so yes they can VI you despite having a foreign plate

No, got a warning for no front plate LOL. Guy was parked on the right lane of seymour. I spotted the F150 with canopy cover and as I drove by I noticed the radio equipment on the dash. He pulled out right after I passed and I was like ooop.. that's for me.

Sucked cause I was literally 10 secs from Harbour Centre where I was doing a presentation in about 20 minutes. It's pay to play, I don't mind. I just found it funny #RIPCAM

I drive by RCMP here on the island in my M2 with no front plate and they do not care. I asked a member once, and they said only the traffic cops () would hand out a ticket for that.

I know many rcmp members and all said they do not care, I also know two traffic cops and they are certified cucks who are still upset they weren’t accepted into rcmp so that wouldn’t surprise me

my luck must be horrible, i use to get pulled over all the time for no front plate. most the time they let me go with a warning but after getting 5 i said fuck it, it isnt worth the trouble and money.

I don't mind the front plate, never bothered me except on a specific few cars that look weird with a plate. In terms of a safety and accountability thing, I'm actually all for front plates.

I also don't mind amber side markers and most ppl like to delete them, so I'm just weird. I prefer the extra visibility it provides and most cars have it integrated well enough that it doesn't bother me.

I didn't mind it when my car had a front plate on, but I wanted to see what it looked like without one, and now I can't go back.

I'm with you on the ambers. I left ambers on my car for 3 years before switching to clears, and that was cause I swapped it during the claim lol. I don't love the clears, might go back to ambers tbh.

I think they used to be at one time, but the placement was problematic in an accident

I think these plates were colloquially known as "pedestrian slicers."

Said goodbye to the M2. It was a great car and was finally all dialed in the way I wanted. But my holy grail popped up for sale and I had to make the switch. I've been hunting for a non diesel F31 wagon since 2019 and have never been able to make a deal as one thing or another would fall through. So I'm happy that it finally worked out with this car.

Free scrap car removal? With the M2?

Glad to see that you've found your unicorn.
