In the late '80s Beretta of Italy sued GM for using their name on a car they produced, and it wasn't the Lumina, lol.

Supersports?? Has a corny ring to it. Is it supposed to be all encompassing of all sports or what?

Bugatti has a Super Sport version of the Veyron, Honda has a line of bikes called supersports. I'm sure there's plenty more.

Ford must be really pissed about 50 companies using GT too then...lol.

Super Sport is/and has always been used by others...may be too generalized to copyright.

Yes and GM settled with Beretta and donated $500,000 to cancer research. As a good gesture both parties gave each other a special gift. GM gave Beretta a, well a new Beretta of course whereas Beretta gave GM a very handsome pair of custom shotguns. Guess which gift is worth way more today!?

I don't think anyone will confuse a Bentley for a Chevrolet. Besides, this thing has been around since '09, so I'm not sure why anyone would wait 8 years to bring it up.
