  • Whaat, PONTIAC doesn't exist anymore?!?! :angry:

    I watched Lady Gagas latest video which features a black trans am pontiac, that made me google Pontiac, and I did that only to find out it doesn't exist anymore.
    How did GM get so bankrupt?

        GM dropped the 'Pontiac' brand 2 years ago, as part of restructuring. GM doesn't really produce sports cars any more. My last car was a red '99 Grand Am sports coupe. My current is an '09 silver G6 coupe.

        There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

          I remain incredibly PO'd about this. Huge fan of the brand.

          Don't know what I'll do when our Bonneville eventually dies. Until then, it will be scrupulous maintenance.

              I've owned two Pontiacs. One was a Sunbird, which was a POS, and a Grand AM, which I thought was a great car. Never a lick of problem with it.

                  Actually (depending on how you measure quality) they've improved considerably.

                    The new Camaro looks really good, and the Trans-Am would look even better.

                        I remember when all the Japanese imports were considered POS and only idiots would buy them. They were commonly called sh*t boxes. They learned and improved. The US has finally learned and is catching up quite quickly. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't surpass them at some point. Depending on the metric, in some areas they already have. (I do questions some of those metrics though)

                          Japanese cars are built in the USA, you know.

                            Yeah, all those British cars on the road prove that.

                            ACK!

                              Huh? Logic FAIL.

                              Our cars were ****, and now we don't make cars any more*. That doesn't make US cars good. You wouldn't make cars any more if it weren't for gov't interventions, subsidies.

                              *well, aside from the factories making foreign makes
