Can you transfer vanity plates?
Suppose you had a 1973 Corvette and your plate was "73 VETTE". Your wife is expecting your first child (triplets), and you have to sell the 'Vette. Can you transfer the plates to the buyer, or do you have to put them on your new Plymouth Voyager?
Can you imagine the laughter as you pull up to the daycare with those plates on your mini-van, lol?

In most states now the tag stays with the owner but there are a few out there where they still stay with the car. I guess you could surrender the plate and let the new owner apply for it immediately afterward.
