What's your insginia!

What is in a name and what is in a logo/ insignia?I have always wondered how some of these cars got their logos. I am not going to give you a history lecture though, but I'll share my favorite car logos and what comes to mind when I see them.

Snakes and horses



some snakes are worth keeping... Dodge Viper GTS


the definition of horse power... Ford Mustang


Sigh.... Ford Mustang Shelby GT500... do you remember the gone in 60 seconds with   Nicholas Cage67 Shelby GT500 a.k.a Eleanor? I fell in love with Ford then. And again I say, it's a dangerous thing when a snake [cobra] is "stings"  a horse [mustang]... madness.


Horses can fly... Ferrari has proven it over and over

Beasts of the highway


I am coming and you can't stop me. where these chaps inspired from the Spanish bull fights? For me a charging bull means power with almost no control. Lambo might need to en light me on this.



I have a Jaaaaaaaag. GRAAAUUUUUU



Ram it! From Dodge

 Pitch forks and all things evil


the car for rich men with a dark side... a few names come to mind


is this italiano for pagan? still makes some good stuff...

why the Y?



classic


Yamaha... doesn't matter if it is a speaker, EQ, or motorbike. Yamaha is known by the "Y"!

for lack of better insignias...




great cars, none the less



Old money! Vanity meets Modesty at the bar



fire-breathing monsters



hello! Konnie.


there is a strange thing about these Stuttgart chaps... great cars in silly exteriors.

If I had wings....

Gives you wings... a car for snobs with cigars


where money beats...

circles and crosses


Bayerische Motoren-Werke (Bavarian Motor works)


a snake and a cross... a weird combination


Reminds me of military uniforms and the united nations!... Cadillac


Chevrolet
