My personal favorite, out of any car, is Pierce Arrow. Just look at it, its a chromed bit of sculpture.

Automakers, today, simply couldn't afford that kind of logo. Rolls-Royce is probably the only one that even comes close, and their vehicles sell for 200-300K and up.

Yes, I believe that is correct. The logo I posted is the badge on the fairing of my Honda F6B.

^ I always loved the "rear third stop light" that lit up as the Viper logo.

I also loved those old Chevrolet fender engine badges, like from the mid 1960's Here's a really hot one . . .

For some reason, the Soarer emblem just doesn't work with the very modern, contemporaneity lines of the 2nd gen/90's car/Lexus SC. The modern Lexus emblem works a lot better with the flowing curves IMO. That Soarer emblem is a lot more baroque, would work well with sharp angled 70's/80's cars IMO.

EDIT:

I always liked the old Impala emblem, they used it on various years, the leaping impala in the circle, one of my favorite designs . . .

WORST:

I really like the Alfa logo. I also like the Lexus logo and would put that in the top bucket. If we are talking specific car logos my favorite is still the Viper logos.

I liked many of the old school Toyota model logos. Crown, Celica, etc.

I agree, my favorite is the MKIV Supra script. They even painted them on all of the brake calipers back then. Looked so good.
