I don't like the new toyota symbol either, I prefer the old one that was Toyota written in katana. I loved it because you could get it on a wooden steering wheel and shift knob. Looked awesome in the 70's-early 80's Toyotas



Also I'm not a fan of gold bowties. The bowtie itself is alright, just don't like the gold.

The modern bowtie is just too 'in your face' big. A smaller, sleeker bowtie would be fine IMO.

I agree I've never liked the Chevy bowtie, and not really the Ford oval either.

Since I was little I had a hypothetical hardon for the Ferrari horse...and obviously the running pony for the Mustang, and furthermore, the subtlety of the SVT badges.

GMC has always been decent looking. Plain, affirmative, solid.

The worst logo is the Dodge Double Hash marks.

First of all, the double hash on the fender has been around for decades, so now all of a sudden eveyone with them is advertising Dodge? Really smart.

Worst of all, they stick it into their advertising, and they way it is drawn it looks like the Roman Numeral II. So for example, every time I see the commercials for the new Dodge Dart, I read the name "Dart II".

Anyone else see what I mean?

Not a fan of the bow tie logo either. Its boring, and I just dont care for it. I also don't care for the blue oval logo either.

My favorite logos are probably Cadillac, and Vauxhall

I don't like the look of the Toyota logo either, but it is one of the most brilliantly designed logos.

All the letters of the name "Toyota" are written in that logo. Can you see them?

Hyundai Design Team Leader: "Great idea!!!! Let's go home!"

lol they are just so lame and can't even make up their own logo.

There area a lot that I like...too many to list.

Some I don't like....

GMC...not exactly the most creative design.
DMC...see above
Kia...Exactly who wants the letters K-I-A displayed prominently on their car?
Volvo...analogous to putting a badge that says "fast" on a Geo.
Someone already mentioned the new Dodge hash marks.

Was that done just to irritate Henry Ford?
