    Nothing against the GTO, but you'd think the Stig would have a faster car. Maybe they should take some money out of Hammond's teeth-whitening budget and buy him a Veyron.

    Wait, I know where they can get one cheap. Just needs to be wrung out.

    Weird. I've seen Holdens here in Australia with Chevy badges on them, but I wasn't aware that yanks were reversing it and rebadging as Holdens over there.

    @Bullitt417: Some say, he was conceived, and born, at the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial...which is technically American soil.

    And some say, that that makes him eligible to serve as President of the United States.

    All we know is, he's called the Stig-in-Chief!

    Some say his cruises down Congress always result in another kind of congress.

    Some say his horn plays The Sky Is Crying.

    Some say his used oil is the secret ingredient in Stubb's barbecue sauce.

    Some say he singlehandedly keeps Austin weird.

    the weird thing about vanity plates in texas is this, the letters are FLAT, not embossed (bumpy) like most other states. So I can see your point, yisoo, but it is actually how the plates look.

    @nataku8_e30: Alabama just moved to mandatory flat tags. My sticker registration this year arrived with a whole new plate (not just the stickers, like normal).

    I used to joke about Delaware's cheapo tags...they were the only ones with flat tags until recently.

    @che-che: you work at the wrong office in Dallas. I've had my plates up on my wall for a couple years and everybody digs it.

    Course, my company gave us money to build a LeMons car too, so maybe we're just car nerds masquerading as computer nerds
