Nothing wrong in having advertisement on your car.  Can be among the most affordable there is. This is my husband's car.  He drives it to his jobsites - he is a general contractor - and it is among our best marketing within the community.

I don't know if the general public would get the RE part of it...not sure though!  My hubby was so excited when I made the 'change' to RE/MAX, he ordered me this one!  I do get comments from my friends and clients...more like, "clever" or "I love it!" but, I don't know that the general public gets it!

I've seen a couple, but identifying marks on the car is not my style.  Case in point, left a dinner in Sherman Oaks last week and was behind a bright red truck with a bright blue LED light around the plate.  It was night time.  I was able to follow the truck for 25 minutes from over a mile away until he exited the freeway in Westlake.  That's an extreme example.  Another one "QN REEN" cut my mom off in 93 when she was dropping me off at high school.  In 2013 I'm walking through a parking lot where I worked and there she was, her royal highness "QN REEN".  New vehicle, same plate.  20 years later I still knew her plate and that she was a crap driver.

 

My favorite are the ham radio guys with their callsigns on their plates.  Quick database check and I know their home address and that they're not home.  If a criminal figured that out, makes them an easy target.

The saving grace for the plate in your picture is the description above and below, which explains the abbreviations for the uninitiated.  I may eat my words one day, but at present I don't care for a plate that is too terse to be comprehensible at a glance.

Come to think of it, I think I lean toward something humourous.  Thanks for the question.
