very tacky.

bad style.

you wear that either because youre a fanboy, or because you want to advertise to the world what car you drive.
both are bad form.

oh, don't forget, you're paying to be a walking billboard.

I would only wear that crap if someone sponsored me.

You can rent my back and frontside for $100 per 16 sq. inch per month.

for women, I'd imagine that rate would be $1000 on the *** cheeks per month.

It says "Lexus" 6 times on that jacket. That's 5 times too many. The one on the left breast can stay; the rest need to not be on the jacket; then it would look good to me.

I would wear something like this to a car meet, but on daily basis, no.

I think that's the main problem-it's too big and too many

Maybe if it had one, it might be fine, something inconspicuous like this

I agree that if it had ONE logo and was small like above ^^, it would look much better.

I need to be paid to wear any of this, and I don't work for cheap.

Not tacky. I like the choice of colors....black, red, and white.

Tacky IMHO...


I think it's tacky how people wear the Puma's with the FERARRI logo all big and flashy...


I feel differently if someone were wearing a Suzuki GXR jacket or a Harley, for a car it just feels wrong.

If you're sponsored than it's okay but let's do it tastefully, not <insert name here> on every visible square inch on the jacket.
