"It's an investment"

For Plate number 1:
"I not pay more than the maximum 15 to 20 million"

At least the money goes to charity.

Damn as if the cars they are putting the plates on aren't enough of a status symbol. People won't know that you are rich when you are driving in your rolls royce unless you have number 1 on your license plate .
Atleast some money is going to charity. I am going to get a copy of a UAE plate an put it on my GS .

one thing they failed to mention in this clip is, no one will F--- with you in United Arab, if you have these plates, not even the police. You can basically do whatever, drive backwards if you want

In China, 1-10 is for Governments.
You can't have it even you have money.
1 is for governor, 2 is the mayor, and 3 for mayor's personal assistent etc.
And people even cops don't wanna mess with them.

Wow. Thats crazy. You need at least 2 characters in CA but if I had a super car, I'd get the license plate, zip26n3, Zip to 6(60) in 3.

No second thoughts? Maybe keep the 6M and donate $750k.
