    MazdaRoadster Logo?

    Just curious as to why the logo has images of what looks to be the Covid-19 virus?

    It didn't show up earlier when I first saw this thread(shortly after it was posted) but it did after a few times of coming back. Posted the pic after it showed up.

    Agreed. I'm all for "keeping a sense of humor" but not sure that is the way(as in the main logo that shows up on every page with realistic representation of COVID-19). I thought maybe it was a hack by someone or "hoping" that was the explanation.

    It’s not a joke at all. Quite the opposite; it’s a statement of our time that we’re all in this together as a species, borders be damned. And in times like this, do your part and reach out to help your neighbors.

    Hmm I get the statement, but the logo just makes it seem like MazdaRoadster is infected with COVID19 lol

    I dunno, to me, the statement message you're trying to get across and the visual representation, there appears to be a disconnect. When one sees the COVID19 virus image, it's linked to deaths, tragedy and just a lot of negative things. Putting images of COVID19 to state that we're in this together is like putting on a KKK uniform and preaching in at an all black Baptist church.

    But I do agree with the message that now more than ever we as a species have to come together to beat this thing and to look out for your fellow man/woman. It puts into perspective what is really important in life and just how blessed we are.
