Just wondering what your favorite auto company or auto model logos/badges are (not necessarily your favorite auto company, but simply its badge-design). I decided not to post a poll with this thread, because, First, there are so many different auto companies and logos (and the logos for each company sometimes change), and, Second, because not all automakers sell in each country, and some people are not aware of all of them (or have seen them). Still, even without a formal poll, it will be interesting to see if there are any patterns in public preference here.


Here are mine, BTW................

Buick....but I actually prefer the older, tri-colored one.






Subaru




Mercedes




BMW




Saturn (now discontinued, of course)




Chevy



Porsche

I like the BMW Roundel, and the engineering calipers on the Acura logo first used on the legendary NSX.

I like the mercedes logo as well. Its almost perfect because on a rim, its always upright

I also like the complexity and history of the Alfa Romeo logo.

Had to go to Wikipedia to remember what it's all about...

I agree, but the Leaping Cat probably looks better as a hood-ornament than as simply a badge. And the new Pedestrian-impact regs are doing a number on hood-ornaments today.

I like the Chrysler winged logo. The badge itself looks like it is implying a great car. They may have once did, but in recent times that hasn't been the case.

I liked the earlier one that had "MILANO" on the bottom. My 1960 Giulietta Sprint was a gem.

Agreed and my fave since childhood. I loved my Matchbox Audis.

Always liked the clean and progressive logo of Lexus and Acura. When Toyota finally got one in 1992, that was a big deal. Audi's is also cool and iconic. Don't care for Chevy's (lacks class and gracefulness) and GMC desperately needs to step into the 90's and get one already.

I think Maserati's logo looks cool with the trident and all.
