Hey 'heads! I am redesign the logo for my friend's magazine V8 Passion, and got to ask your feeling about it. The top one already been approved, the others are just slightly different. Which one you like the most...?!? Advices are welcome! Thanks!
Life is so good!

Pierre, you know how I feel about your work. I love it. Wellllll......not meaning to be a fly in the ointment, but since you asked....
I'm really not liking the script you chose for that particular design. To be honest, the overall layout (all of them) looks like something done at the local Quickie-Stickie. "Passion" looks like something stuck on as an afterthought and you're not sure what to do with it.
To me, a V8 is all about "power". I'm not feeling it with this particular layout.

I've seen this magazine, mostly 50's and 60's stuff, so on that count the logo fits for me. I would maybe try a non italic v8 and a more italicized and arched passion, i like #5 the best, it works for me the way it is just fine, Pierre

I liked #4. Second choice is #3 for me. Don't like the arc-slant of #5.

Keep in mind I had to work with the colors they've been using for the past 8 years and that the new image is an evolvement from the previous logo and not a complete makeoever. Also the magazine is not just an hot-rods mag, it also feature classic cars and new cars too.

4 then 5. (I'm not keen on the ones with Passion on a horizontal baseline)

I think the white outline on the V8 is enough and it doesn't the black outline too. It sort of makes it vibrate for me, with the red & black so close. I think that would make the V8 look a lot cleaner & easier to read.
