    I just noticed they no longer use those alien letters anymore on the plate.
    You can also create a custom plate with other languages. I just tried to make one in Japanese(kanji characters) and it worked! :D

    Well i suppose akuma (悪魔 ;)would be only 2 words long, but if you want your Extreme edition (エクストリム。エヂシオン） in katakana, thats going to be quite long. Unless of course you want the meaning only. If you want kata it probably wouldn't fit.

    It seems to go back and forth for me.... A few weeks back, when I was just testing it, no Alien letters. Last week (22nd?) when I was ordering my m11x, there were Alien letters (I used "SHAW" as my personalization) :p

    It is probably just a scripting error, come to think of it. I'll know in a few days, when I get mine :D
