Did they remove the square GM badge they used to put on the quarter panel at the bottom for 2012's?

PaulB

Yes, they removed that a few years ago ..

crazyeddie

makes you wonder why they decided to put them on and why they decided to take them off. Couldn't have been the same guy, ha ha. Same for the under hood light being deleted and the small plastic pull down bar on the rear hatch. Just something else I don't get!!eddie

My '06 has them, think it was the next year they quit instaling them.

They decided to take them off because all of us do anyway.

I think branding the car as both GM and Chevrolet was confusing. My guess is that in 2009 someone decided that Corvette was a Chevrolet brand and they stopped putting on GM chicklets. While there was a special edition on the occasion of Chevrolet's 100th anniversary, there was nothing special done for GM's 100th.

My early build 09 has them. I think they were discontinued either in 2009 or 2010.

2009

No, they were discontinued very early (a month or so) into 2010 model year production.

On my Black 07/A6. I took a little RED touch up paint smeared it into the GM plate, wiped it clean with a rag. The color stays in the grooves. Makes the badge stand out. Looks wicked nice.

carjo

Nah! My '09 has them.

I actually bought a set to put on my 2010 GS. Bought off ebay...wasn't very much. I like them.

I always thought they looked pretty cool.

Back in 2009-2010, being a GM product was not something to brag about...

mpuzach

Yeah, I bought a pair for my '05, too. They're not quite like the factory ones but pretty close.

Sadly, I would argue it is not today, either. I have two GM products and love them, but it pisses me off to no end about the bail-outs, ruining the secured bondholders, etc. Not trying to hijack the thread...sorry.

My point being that I frequently question if I will purchase another GM product...ever.

I like my vette, but I dispise GM's busness ethyics & mentallity. I would never consider any other GM product. If Toyota or Honda made a V-8 car that looked and sounded as good as the Corvette, and was price comparable, I'd switch in a heart-beat. Just sayin', Corvettes are nice, but GM sucks.
