Hey all I just wanted to bring this to everyone's attention.
There is a group who is trying to get everyone organized
to push for the return of Pontiac.I would appreciate it if
everyone would at least take a look at the site and email
the guy who is working on the site.
Thanks.

Fen is going to make a hitlist out of these people.

What would be the purpose to bring back a failed business model?

The last thing people want or need to see is GM expanding again before they have fully stabilized.

Pontiac lost it's way and died, same as Saturn. Get the core of GM healthy again, then start thinking about novelty cars with Pontiac badging.

GM doesn't really have enough in the lineup right now to fill an entire "excitement" division with models. Other than the G8, all of the models in the later years where just FWD sedans. That problem still exists at the moment. I'd rather Pontiac made nothing than see the brand cheapened with badge engineered Aveos, Cobalts, and minivans.

Don't forget the Solstice........both missed, never coming back....no point of protesting a for a lost cause.

All of you know my opinion on this matter.

No point whatsoever. For the time being, at least.

If I started a petition asking GM to give everyone in North America $1000 I bet lots would sign on ... doesn't mean they'd go through with it though.

Hey, if the Chinese or Swedish wouldn't buy Pontiac, it's done. Stick a fork in it!

The Chinese/Swedish wouldn't buy Pontiac because it was never for sale...

The only Pontiac's I ever liked were the GTO and Trans Am WS6.
I just wanted to see what you guys thought of this.
