Ideas for a logo for my 929

Post by JAY-929 » Wed Dec 30, 2009 7:13 am

I'm thinking for the future here. Eventually, I would like to trim my car with suede/leather/woodgrain. I wouldn't mind giving it the "Statesman/Caprice" influence. So I was thinking of a "luxury"logo to have embroidered in the seats and door trims.

Your thoughts on which one looks better please :)

Hmmm... what would the significance be with these emblems? Never come across these before, to be honest!

And yeah.. number 1 is getting my attention aswell ;)

for the number one, looks like a statesman badge going to donate organs :)

the AMATI was to be LEXUS(toyota)/ACURA(honda) for the mazda, should have taken overtake the Eunos brand and replace it. Autozam (another mazda brand) was supposed to go ultra budget, so the low cost versions of mazdas were to be badged as that. middle range mazdas and top of the line Amati.

the Ẽfini started sort of similar to HDT(Holden Dealer Team), a couple dealers got together and desided to release own variations (top of the line with sporty motors)... quickly got backed up by factory and had few models

the above from what i learned the bellow are wikipedia:

Amati: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda#Marques
Ẽfini: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E1%BA%BCfini

Maybe to incorporate the typical HC "929" badge with the Amati logo.... that could work too... now that I know the meaning behind Amati.

You learn something new everyday!

I'll sleep on it :p

If you are going a full interior makeover with leather, woodgrain, painted dash, new carpet etc (lets face it, if you dont do it right, if wont look good) then i dont really think you need a badge. But if you insisted, i would get the AMATI badge cut and polished in stainless steel and sew it into the leather.
To pull it off you will also need nice clean looking exterior. How you do that is personal preference.

Would love to see it happen, its just ALOT of money.

EDIT:

tried to find the V10 Mazda used for Le Mans, to say that you can find mazda V10 and drop it in... but damn that was harder then find a pictures of one of the rarest ideas (amati)

so here B26R instead, put that in your pipe and smoke it (tires)
