License plate Idea (not associated with that other thread)

I know there was that thread that went on for months and months about all of the possible custom plate ideas. I can't find it and I tried searching...don't remember the name of it.

Anyways....
What do people think of the plate

"MTRSPT"

I know most people [non "M"/BMW people] will not understand the association of ///M meaning Motor Sport but I thought it would be a cool plate.
And also I think it is nonchalant enough that I won't have to risk getting my car keyed or people think of me as a complete douche on the road.

Surprisingly it wasn't taken when I checked online for TX.
Thoughts?

It might get misread as MT Rapist.

I don't expect many people would get it. Mine says M3NTAL which I think it is super simple to translate. Yet, I get asked what it means all the time.

I like it, though.

Hence the use of the word "misread".

This sounds good.
Would people mistake it for him having an M sport package, if they didnt not know much about cars?

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I'm just going to wait until March 7 when the 7 letter plates come out and get "MTRSPRT"

MK599,
I was thinking the same thing.

I think it's good.

I've got a Jerez black with fox red so l went for M666 SLL

M = M Division

666 = The Beast (I'm not religious and being 50% Chinese that's actually a lucky number)

SLL = All 3 of my initials
