A car doesn't get a single plate for its lifetime here.  That's not how it works.

That depends on where you live chad.   In CA,  the plates go with the car when you sell it.  Here in ID,  you keep the plates to stick on other vehicles.

Its a state issue....in WA the plates go with the car, UNLESS they're vanity plates, then you can opt to keep them.  Also, plates are retired and reissued every X number of years (10?), again unless they're personalized etc.

As for flying with them in carry on, I don't see any reason why it would be an issue.  I would think that the tsa would have more of an issue with a can of playdoh with a usb memory stick stuck in it...

In my particular case I WAS going to do what I usually do, which is insure the vehicle before I get there, stick the plates on it that I was going to be transferring onto it, and then drive it back with those on it, and register it when I got back.

But, I didn't buy the car, so it is a moot point.

I'm pretty sure the plates don't have to go with the car in CA, though... I was just talking to someone in CA recently who had vanity plates he said he's had for like 20 years.
