Default Collector license plates

There was a discussion on this in the Ohio forum (https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/686...lector-plates/) but I was wondering if anyone else in the country has collector tags on their CR? Given that only 699 were ever produced, I would think that our cars would qualify as a collector vehicle... although I'm sure the rules vary from state to state. Just curious if anyone has them.

All of those are collector plates? Just to clarify my original post, I'm not talking about personalized plates, I'm referring to collector car plates.

If those are collector plates, how difficult was it for you to obtain those? Did you have to get any documentation from Honda stating that it was a limited production run?

I know that "Collector" status plates were denied for the CR in the state of OR, so I haven't even bothered in WA lol

I think we're just gonna have wait till 2038(30 yrs in WA state)

My mistake, by "collector plate" your not referring to those reserved for antique/classic cars are you? The vehicle has to be 25 yrs old minimum to qualify.

Look on the bright side Ira, in 2033 it will be eligible. I don't know about other states "collector" plates, but here they are downright ugly even allowing for the cheaper cost!

WA DOL pretty much states the same thing but THIRTY YEARS


Collector plates are basic WA background with small print next to plate number reading "collector vehicle"





I emailed them anyway. I even recomended that there be a new plate "Modern Day Collector". Why not? Bicyclist and square dancers get special plates!!!!!
