it's much better to have a US plate (or no plate at all) on the car. US cars needs to be modified in Europe to accomodate the large ugly bulk Euro plates.
On the rear they use a truck plates or motorcycle plates !
The US standard is one of the few things in the automobile industrie the americans made it better then the europeans ! I know many people will hate me for that, but this is true !
The other things I like is the automatic transmission and air condition ! The rest of it, gotta be european !
We had very few cars in europe with auto tranny and A/C before the US market become so large all the european manufacturer tried to grab a small piece of it ! Now it is changing more and more small car comes with a/c in standard or maybe they ask for a small price, but a special edition modells are all comes with a/c. The auto tranny still only for larger cars and stronger engines only, but at least for extra money you could order a auto transmission

but please forget those ugly euro plates and get yourself a nice US personalized plate !
