actually, like that Majesta has, 8 is probably more desirable. Eight, or 八 (hachi), is suppose to symbolize growth because its a "sue-hirogari" letter. I'm sure youve noticed blacked out Mercedes or Celsior with Omiya plates with 88-88 number. And if you do see a blacked out Celsior/Majesta/etc with Omiya plates, DO NOT mess with them.

Edit: I just noticed you own 2 cars in Japan. Do you live around Tokyo?

YES....88 88 you dont want to mess with them.. heehee.. one of my wife`s best friend`s dad has a plate with 88 88 in Chiba (hint)

I live in Adachi, Tokyo. Near by Ayase station. I live in Cal and native but we have a house here in Japan due to my wife side of family still live in Tokyo.

lol, yeah, Chiba plates aren't the most friendliest driver either.

My ex used to live on the next station; Kameido. For some reason, I lived between the States and Japan almost every five years but I lived in Tokyo for my undergrad just till this April in Kitchen-George (kichijoji) and Hiyoshi ('hama). Great place, just really expensive (well, in comparison to the midwest).

I already miss Tokyo, good ol' slow life Indiany isn't bad, but I'm already bored.
