well check out the others...I think a Chevy one would be tacky...but may be able to get away with Audi or BMW and not look too tacky.

Seriously only a fanboy would sport there fav brand on their jacket, but yeah I agree the Audi and BMW ones are the best of them.

I think the Honda one is funny with the red badge and all. Now if only Honda actually had sports cars in their lineup

Unless I was sponsored by said company for whatever reason, I wouldn't wear it. It's just tacky IMHO. It's just an odd opinion I have since I'm actually okay with people wearing their favorite teams jersey.

A little of both. IMO, the colors are cool....the pattern somewhat tacky.

I doubt those are officially sanctioned but there is nothing wrong with it. Are Yankees jackets tacky? LA kings jackets? Green Bay packer jackets?

I think its more motorsport influenced so I don't see an issue with it. Now I wouldn't wear it everyday but to a car meet or so why not!

It only really starts to become a problem if you're wearing a jacket for a car you don't own.
