I don't get any of this badge stuff. 
  
If a manufacturer makes a decent model, then fair play to them, whether it's a Vauxhall or anything else. 
If Nissan made a good car with the 350Z why take the Nissan badge off? 
If I take the Nissan badge off my 350Z will it no longer be a Nissan? 
What if I put a Pagani badge on my 350Z will it become a Zonda F Roadster? 
Regarding other peoples' opinions.....my mother doesn't like my taste in music...so I'll cry...or buy James Last's greatest hits....maybe not.
