Can someone explain the novelty of "number plates" to an American?

I believe you call them "Vanity Plates" & they have to be renewed every year & only valid in each state.
Over here they are sold at the Market Value ( whatever that is perceived to be at the time ), but are with you (or the car) for as long as you deem necessary ... until resold.

So a plate with a name on, (say ... J4MES), is a both a very valuable Commodity & Investment

In my experience selling plates is an ****...

All the reg companies tell you your plate is worth a fortune, you register with them and wait, and wait and wait.

Ebay might be a better place for a quick honest sell... ( in the end I sold mine to a workmaye who had the right initials )
