Logan K. Carter/ JalopnikChange is scary, but inevitable in this world. Fortunately, some things remain sacred, particularly among long-standing car brands. Whether linked to nostalgia or heritage, the automotive world is full of little traits that the average joe may not pick up on, but us car nerds know them when we see them. On that note, earlier this week I asked you what signature design element you would hate to see go away, and you all had some great answers. This is only a handful of my personal favorite answers, but there are plenty of other great ones that didn't make this roundup that I implore you to go back and read. Or if you missed your shot, leave your answer in the comments below.I said the signature design element I hope never goes away is the Subaru WRX's gaping hood scoop that looks ever-ready to suck up anyone who dares cut you off. It left a mark on me from an early age when I was a kid getting yelled at for being too close to the TV while watching the World Rally Championships. I truly hope it never goes away. But that's enough from me, this is about you. These are the signature design elements that you would hate to see go away:Read more: 11 Of The Biggest V8 Engines Ever Put In Production CarsVolkswagen GTI's plaid seatsMIR-GTI/ Bring A TrailerI have always loved the plaid seats that are available in the VW GTI. It's always a slightly different take on the plaid design, but I connect that with a GTI 100%. As much as design language changes and cars become more advanced it's nice to see some things stay the same and consistent.Submitted by: MikeJeep Wrangler's and Porsche 911's respective silhouettesJeepJeep has tried their absolute best to minimize the seven slot grille. Even in that photo, it is a glossy black mess, nearly indistinguishable from the other character lines thrown in. The new facelift grille looks closer to an aftermarket grille than something from factory.For Jeep Wrangler, and Porsche 911, I hope they keep their silhouette. That's been their distinctive visual feature, you can generally identify them on their shadows alone.Also round headlights. Jeep learned that one the hard way.AdvertisementAdvertisementSubmitted by: jalopyjamesCadillac's vertical lightsCadillacVertical lighting on Cadillacs.

It's a distinctive feature that serves as a clear brand identifier. But unlike BMW's increasingly ridiculous kidney grill or the stuck-in-the-60's bugeye headlights on Porsche 911s, Ford's beltline dip is completely functional and serves an actual purpose, rather than just being a stylistic nod to the past.
