Pontiac: Affordable Performance, RWD/AWD cars, 4,6,8 cylinders, super/turbo chargers.
Cadillac: Full out luxury vehicles. The best.

As for people who still want a GMC, offer a GMC Denali trim on the trucks/suv's Chevy sells. Then GM might save a ton of money trying to develop vehicles, and they can get totally away from rebadging.

Suggestions?
That is exactly what they need to do if they could. Sadly franchise rules make life hard for GM.
