Our Tesla Model 3 Vanity Plate Winner . . . and a List of All the Losing Names
Our Tesla Model 3 Vanity Plate Winner . . . and a List of All the Losing Names
Car and Driver
  • Yesterday we asked–no, begged–our readers to please weigh in on an issue that's divided our office for days: what should go on a vanity plate for our long-term Tesla Model 3.
  • We narrowed it down from over 180 staff submissions to two finalists, but we couldn't decide, so we asked our readers.
  • The results are in, and it appears as though the readers also had a difficult time deciding: CL1CKB8 won by the narrowest of margins.

    Breaking news out of C/D's Ann Arbor headquarters this afternoon: CL1CKB8 has been chosen as the vanity plate for our new Tesla Model 3 long-term test car. Leading CAR AND by 51 to 49 percent, it was a close race, but ultimately CL1CKB8 clinched the win.

    Our Editor-in-Chief has submitted the request for the plate, and we're expecting it to arrive just in time for the car's next photo shoot. We were asked by a number of readers what our other suggestions were, so we're happy to present the list in its entirety below.

    Some are snarky, some are completely indecipherable, and some are inside jokes that only those in our office would understand. Take EMMYLVR for example, a reference to Tony Quiroga's cute pup, Emmy, who joins us in meetings and supervises our newsroom, barking out orders for MORE VIRAL CONTENT almost every day. Take a look through the list and tell us in the comments which one you'd have chosen.
