Strangely enough, I bought my IS 250 in the beginning of Nov. Now its like nearly the end of December and I haven't got my front and back license plates from DMV. Anyone experience this problem? Or is this car too new?

Not that I really want it to ever come but hey my temp registration expired like a while ago.

It takes a while sometimes. My friend bought a Honda in June, and did not get her plates for ten weeks! Gotta love the CA DMV...

In California your temp reg is good for 6 months. If the dealer files electronically it takes about 3 weeks, if they use snail mail it can take up to 3 months. If it's been 3 months already you should contact the dealership's finance manager so they can track your reg. Make sure there's no typos on the temp reg as this is the most common delay.

I always like the period from after I buy until the plates arrive. Sort of like a
honeymoon. My dealer ad plate is kind of cool looking - the Penske finish flag.

No plates here yet - not sure I will install them right away anyway. Pink slip
arrived weeks ago.
