In California it's mandatory to have a front plate, but it's a rule that's very rarely enforced. I've had no front plate on my car for years and never had a problem. And if you do get a ticket for it, it's $25. So most people just risk it. 🙂
 
So what's the car with the cage? I thought it was a Lexus SC430 at first, but the profile shot doesn't match.

And widebody Mini FTW.
