I liked 330 ZHP because it didn't really look like a personalized plate.

I'm kind of liking the simple "ZHP". I'm a little surprised it isn't taken already, actually.

ZHP is nice and simple. People may think it is your initials. Here in NJ the normal plate designations are one letter followed by two numbers, then a space followed by three letters. If I get personalized plates they will be E46 ZHP. No one will know unless they are in the know.

This, or maybe last two year digits and zhp.

could copy mine since you are in different state if you want people thinking you are British or thinking you have 0 horsepower...but the people that say they like it are cool. :thumbsup

Mine is '05 ZHP'. Still pretty simple and generally not understood. So many of us went through this process when the forum had just gotten off the ground with Mark! It was fun.....

Mine is "05 ZHP" as well. I like "ZHP" too.

Thanks, guys! I like ZHP a lot, but I also like E46 ZHP because like spatchel said, it's almost hard to tell its even a personalized plate. I actually had that one on the list. I like that because it doesn't draw attention, but BMW peeps will still catch it.

Decisions...

Thanks!

E46 ZHP looks cool because it won't catch attention. but I recently ordered plates in ny they say "ZHP LIFE" can't wait to get them to see what they look like on the car

I think you can't go wrong either way. Unless you know about ZHPs or E46s, "E46 ZHP" and "ZHP" will be just as confusing. E46 ZHP looks more like a normal license plate, so if that's what you're aiming for, go for it!

Let us know what you finally decide. You have a lot of great ideas there!

Mine's ZHP 005. I was torn between that and E46 ZHP. I went for the former because it's more subtle, and looks really good on the Virginia Great Seal plate.

I might go for SXY TME for my ZHP....

Argh. So conflicted! I can't decide! I love the simplicity of ZHP, but I also really like the stealthiness and geekiness of E46 ZHP.

I can't believe 330 ZHP is taken, but ZHP isn't. Weird.

SXY TME. Love it.

I like the NTSPCL that somebody did. Hilarious, but nobody would ever get that.

Plates are ordered.

1. E46 ZHP
2. ZHP

I had to submit three choices, so I was plumbing the depths looking for a third I might actually like.

Here's a few that were already taken:
- 33O ZHP
- ZHP 33O
- DSC OFF ... Hmm, for some reason, "DSC ON" wasn't taken. ;)
- 6MT

Here's a few that were available, some surprising:
- TIAGZHP
- BMW ZHP
- 6MT ZHP
- MECHZHP (Mech is Deutsch for manual)
- O4ZHP
- ROUNDEL
- ZHP CAB
- OUR ZHP
- MY ZHP
- ZHPVERT
- VERDECK (Deutsch for "soft top")
- YIWERK

I can't even remember what I selected for third choice... I was waffling between ZHPVERT and 6MT ZHP, and I think I selected the latter.

Cheers,
SC

No clue. The message I posted was all I got. I guess I just know that at least one of them passed. It will be like Christmas morning when I get them. Surprise!
