Exclamation Return of the Chrysler Pentastar !?! :)

There are reports that the Chrysler Pentastar logo will return...

http://www.autoblog.com/2007/05/17/c...entastar-logo/

Maybe Cerberus will be a good owner for Chrysler...

Re: Return of the Chrysler Pentastar !?! :)

I'm not so sure about this move... seems that the pentastar didn't represent the best time in Chrysler's history (K-car, anyone?). This seems like a step backwards.

Re: Return of the Chrysler Pentastar !?! :)

Now they car start putting little Pentastar emblems on their fenders like GM does now with it's GM logo. If I owned a GM car, the first thing I'd do when I got home would be to take that stupid emblem off.

I agree with xjameson. When I think of a Pentastar, I think of a K-car.

Well don't all/most car makers have a car/skeleton in their history that they would like to bury , seal up and not have to be reminded of it forever ! Let's see ,,Pinto,Vega ,K-car ,early Toyota Coroola , Prism ,etc ! Hey, if one doesn't like a Pentastar, then take it off, pretend it's a real Chrystal and attach it to a loop of something and hang around neck for your lucky piece ! !!

The Pentastar makes me think of the 66 Coronet SW my Father had.

The really cool emblem/symbol from mopar's heyday is the curved triangle dodge put on the hood of their old Challengers.

Re: Return of the Chrysler Pentastar !?! :)

This is the best damn news I've heard in a long time! For those too young to remember, the Pentastar was Chrysler's logo throughout its glory days of the 60s and 70s. I recall seeing it on all the Dodge and Plymouth dealer signs, car brochures, etc.

I'm glad to see Chrysler reclaiming its (American) identity. To Daimler (Mercedes), I say "good ridance!"
