Can you recognise these car logos?

Car companies haven’t been having a good time: oil prices, environmental concerns and now recession are not helping the market.
More and more they need to stand out from the crowd, and one of the best ways to do this is to have a logo we recognise instantly when an interesting-looking car goes past.
So here’s the logos of some of the big names in motoring – reduced in size to how large you would see them in real life. (Click on the logo to see it full size.)
See which ones you can recognise and which stand out!
(It’s also interesting to note which brands use colours and which colours are used!)
After looking at these smallish car logos, the idea of having a logo in simplified forms and shapes do shout out loud. On the other hand, Some people would like to think that intricately designed logos often associate with luxurious brand.
I see Audi’s logo sitting nicely between being simple and luxury.
Audi stands out and I love this brand!
On the topic of car manufacturer and the current situation in the US, I hope that the big ones (anyone say GM?!) will go to make room for car companies that deserve more attention like Tesla Motors!
