I initially took it as a reference to Porsche’s internal successor to the 997, although I think it may actually be a reference to the Ducati 998 motorcycle given how fast the ‘vette is. Either way, it is obviously tongue in cheek as the ‘vette wouldn’t easily be confused with either.

Ok could also just be random plate from DMV.

Slight to Porsche in a how I take it. Makes sense given the capability of the Vette in well trained hands.

I definitely think it's a random license plate. There is no Porsche 998... And I definitely don't think it's got anything to do with an old Ducati... that would just be super weird and random.

I think 998 may refer to a car S2 998 in the video game called Forza Horizon 5, at least that's what my friend The Google told me.

Since I’m not a gamer, I never would have thought to look there; but I think you’re correct.

It seems 998 was used casually for many automotive and motorcycle things, including the successor to the 997. Porsche dropped using it and it was never official; I suspect the copyright was too hard to untangle.

Perhaps goes back to the presidential election of 2000?
