Chevrolet Corvette owners wear their passion on their license plates

Chevrolet Corvette owners are a passionate lot. And many are happy to wear their love for the two-seater on their license plates.

Last week, hundreds of Corvettes and their owners gathered at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky., for the C5/C6 Bash. The program included car shows, tips on Corvette care and the main attraction for most attendees--a first look at the 2013 Corvette, the last of the C6 generation of the sports car. Corvette team members, including chief engineer Tadge Juechter and program manager Harlan Charles, talked about the new car and mingled with the crowd.

Here is a sampling of some of the entertaining license plates spotted in the parking lot of the museum during the Bash.
