I like all those and have a collection of others I like but to me the pca badge is like so trad and I've had the badge on so many cars including the grilles of Speedsters that I just can't see it changed.

Quick club version of their pca DE logo.

Not saying this is great. But it's not worse!

I think in the last couple of years there was a big PCA national vote where they snuck in a section that essentially makes it impossible to ever change the logo.

But life will go on, bad logo or not!

Holding dual membership in PCA and BMW(space)CCA, IMHO, Panorama has outclassed the Roundel bigtime. Roundel contains some "fluff" columns with little or no connection to the automobile or activities with it. Even the classifieds in Pano are better. It takes a few days to devour every page of Pano vs. a few minutes to flip through the Roundel.

So PCA has a license agreement with Porsche AG that allows the club to use the crest, script and images. However, the club has to follow a strict set of rules when doing so. The same goes for Porsche's own dealers in the US and Canada.

Google Porsche Club Spain, Japan, Venezuela, France, Deutschland, etc and you'll a common theme. Then look at the PCA logo. Very different. Very independent.

The bylaws change regarding the logo was just another step that prevents PCA from being 'bought out' by any sponsor or outside entity.

Hey, just like to apologize for taking off on tangents and hijacking this thread last night. I've edited some of my unnecessary rants.

Pete Stout, and the previous folks, did much good stuff for PCA and Pano, wish them all the best.

Like you, dual membership and Pano way outclasses the Roundy!
