There’s only one Electric GM product we care about.

Thank you! Some of the prudes in here are insufferable.

Star just for making remember Mary Ann. Ginger never had a chance with Mary Ann on the island.

I would like to unsubscribe to your newsletter.

This looks to me like a case of someone restoring a reasonably common classic car to fit their tastes and match their favorite parts from throughout the lifespan. The choices seem very intentionally made. Obviously though any car being purchased should be inspected heavily especially something like this.

You should treat a piece of automotive history by... Frankensteining parts together from different years?

A great tidbit from those of us on the German-speaking side of the world:

Go see how much Toyota is charging for a flat plastic grille ornament that has the logo printed on it. Enjoy the laugh.

Yeah, I was going to comment the same thing, just go back to that 1963 logo, that’s sharp and classic.

Counterpoint: It’s fine. Your ‘improved’ version just looks like a generic, meaningless symbol or emoji. I far prefer the lettering with it. I feel like focusing on the ‘propeller’ (yeah, I know that’s not it) is the opposite of what should’ve been done. They’re transitioning into new territory, and doing new things.

Damn right, leave the logo alone, and fire whoever was responsible for the new grills.

THANK YOU. The whole point of a logo is it’s a consistent factor for me to associate your brand with. Changing it up for no particular reason does the exact opposite of its intended purpose.

Everything is going flat again and retro-simple. Go back to the 1963 version - no need to reinvent the wheel. Losing the black ring gives the logo less impact. This is just change for change’s sake and not for any good reason. Just read that stupid PR-quote to confirm that. Of course all the German cars I buy are 20+

I don’t get why logos are “due for updates” anyway. Unless there’s a fundamental shift in the business that muddles the logo’s message or they used some very period-specific styling in the first place, there’s no need to change something that currently works. It only makes sense when there’s a functional issue to be

Bring us the electric Mopar Magic you cowards

My Ford is all ‘Murican. Ain’t no bean dip or maple syrup in it. And them’s Toy-yodas are just assembled here in Texas, but thems parts are Chinese.

Neutral:

Well, I wouldn’t buy it in my current position, but as I said in another reply to you, this car is priced well for the market and has been maintained well. This makes it a good deal, no matter the mileage. I don’t give two shits about the mileage if all the important bits are actually in just about perfect condition.

Thank you! Why does nobody here understand that a market for a collectible car is just the market and you can’t change it. Just accept it, look for the well maintained ones, not the low-mileage ones, and drive the wheels off of them!
