Interesting stuff - will have to go back and do some reading there. I noticed
that Subaru was left off the list. The emblem for Subaru represents the seven
stars of the Pleiades constellation (also known as the Seven Sisters and as
Taurus). I forget the significance to Japanese history or why the parent
company, Fuji Heavy Industries, named their vehicle operations this. Just
another example of useless trivia locked up in my head.

the "four rings" in the Audi logo, the fascinating stories behind Fiat,
Peugeot, and other foreign automobile manufacturers, as well as the meaning
