I wasn't thinking of anyone being special... I was just reacting to what I was reading on trademark infringement. From how I read it, you can only damage a trademark by disparaging the mark, altering it, or saying untruthful things about it. By making the claim that the company has not endorsed the images and also truthfully portraying the product (it's a car.. you left it looking exactly the way it was manufactured)....seems straightforward.. and of course law is never straightforward. Time for a good trademark attorney!!!

I had the same thought about the cabinets, the kitchen sink (Delta, Kohler, Moen), Patio furniture, backyard pool, entry doors, pavers, tennis rackets, any and all clothing (nike, victoria's secret, calvin klein), etc etc etc.
Again, if you are displaying the product within its intended purpose; commercial or not, I don't see how you are violating someone else's trademark. Hell, you are giving them free advertising (which BTW is one of the most common reasons products are blurred out on TV.. they haven't paid for advertising).
