The number 8 has some significance in some Asian coutries. Singapore for
one - where you also pay 100 percent tax on a car! I have seen plates listed
for much more than what was shown on hte site. Any combo of 8 really fetches
a high price. I think 8 is a lucky number in the Mandarin speaking
countries, while the number 4 means "death".

I will see if  can find a website listing prices for those that are
interested. Anyone know of any roadsters in Singapore or Hong Kong? Talk
about boosting the price of roadsters - we could try to use an ad from there
to make our next sale. (to buy another roadster , of course..)

I found this interesting article that a few would like about the personal
license plate.
