They are replacing it with "A company of ideas"....It doesnt even sound like it would go hand and hand with a car... I hear that and i think advertising not my car parked outside. I think its a bad move.

Oh my ass! Could they have replaced it with something worse? Ok, I guess it could always be worse...
"A company of ideas" sounds like freakin' General Electric or BP. Bleh...
