Some people are really touchy about every aspect of their automobiles. They want to be in control of each piece of hardware, despite the price or the insignificance of the object. Frank Vassallo IV of Wilmington, Delaware proves the length at which people will go for their cars, shelling out a total of $675,000 for the number 6 license plate, and was admittedly prepared to spend up to a million bucks for the solo number plate. When asked why he wanted number 6 so bad, Vassallo said “It’s a family thing.” The Vassallo family also owns Delaware plates 9, for which they paid $185k at auction in 1993, and number 27.
