I work for GM and I was glad when I heard them doing this. The reason I like the idea is that many people don't even know which cars are GM vehicles. They don't know Saturn is a GM or Saab or Hummer...

And I guess it is the dealers choice to remove the badges, but it irritates me they would do that. The purchaser should chose to remove it. Maybe they needed more space to put their own dealership stickers all over the thing. Now I hate those damn things!

+1 on that, my dad bought a saturn a while back and loved it. Good little car. When I told him I got the camaro, he was like you should have bought a saturn (loved the quality). I had to tell him that saturn and chevy are like co-companies and they are both GM . My dad is not a car guy at all...

Oh and that dealership sticker came off as soon as I got the car home.

I don't think I would mind having the GM badge on my car.
