Re: Goodbye, Pontiac.

Its a shame to see companies like these fall on their face soo hard. Then again, they're completely at fault for their own demise. I think we all at one time have have looked at a corvette or older camaro and been pleased with what we have seen. But I doubt any of us have went up to a newer grand price and said, "hey this is cool." They fell into a rutt, and there's pretty much only one way to get out, get rid of what's not necessary and try again.

Re: Goodbye, Pontiac.

good riddance. By far the most unpleasant driving experience I've ever had was when my car was at the auto body shop and I had a rental saturn. My roommate had the exact same car, same color, and I told him it was the worst car i've ever driven.

Oh, I thought I heard saturn was also going. Pontiacs suck just about as bad, but at least they dont feel ridiculously cheap riding in them.

Ride Pontiac Ride! We build excitement, PONTIAC!

Guess I can give up hope that they will ever release another Fiero, lol

My avatar is even more fitting with the news of Pontiac going away.
