Old School PORSCHE Badge

This is a shot of the back of the Panamera

I'm not a fan of the shape or weight of the car, but it's really cool that the chrome PORSCHE is back. It would be even better without the model badge. I'd love to see it adopted on the sports cars.

The interior and badge are really cool, the rest of the car sadly is... well as Jeremy Clarkson once said "begins with s, ends with t and it isn't sut."

I have a feeling people will start putting these badges on the back of their Boxster trunklids.

I confess that I was just thinking, "Hey, that would look good in lieu of the Boxster badge I peeled off."

Well, when I was thinking it, I didn't say "in lieu" to myself, but whatever.

Very nice. I would take my Boxster S Emblem off and put that one on. Incidentally when I replaced 'Boxster" Emblem after I bought the car (it had a broken tip), I noted there as was a black residue that although I tried a bit to get it off, decided just to put the new emblem over it exactly. It had obviously been on there for 8 years....

I guess my question is could I ever debadge it and restore that area to new os would I always be fighting a ghost of the emblem being on the trunk. I guess a detailer could take it out.

Anyway, I agree, great badge. Bob 2001 Boxster S
