You know the hype for a car is real when people create fan swag before the car even debuts. The
for the upcoming decades-awaited mid-engined
C8 is still
, yet a money-minded fellow in California is already trying to take advantage of the anticipatory build-up. A pair of vanity plates that read, “VETTE C8” is currently listed on
for several hundreds of dollars.
Spotted by
, eBay user estatesalespecialists posted the specialty black and yellow legacy license plates for a buy-it-now price of $495. With free shipping, that would be a pure profit of $445, as California’s 1960s replica plates cost $50.
Although the plate might appear to be an opportunistic cash grab (well, it still is), estatesalespecialist’s entire account is dedicated to these ’60s vanity plates. Aside from
Spider wheels and parts for a Cessna, there are more than 40 different specialty car-themed plates. Some of the standouts include WESTY
, FJCRUZE, 1976 OH2 (
2002), TEE RSIX (
), BMW NK (Neue Klasse), and 79 911SC. The user also sells several modern or upcoming car plates, including
, GIULIA Q,
, BMW EM2,
, and AUDI
. Every single plate listing is posted for $495, so the Vette plate is surprisingly not elevated.
The C8 has the potential to be the
most impressive and advanced car of all time, so there’s no question it will attract attention in droves. Pair that with California’s thriving car culture, its affinity for specialty plates, and the overall importance placed on appearances, and it certainly seems like there’s probably somebody out there who
must
have this plate. Or, if they wanted to be less obvious, they could go with CEIGHT.
