Not that it will make any difference.

Good call, because it won't make any difference.

If you want to do something proactive, buy several Pontiacs. This month. And get alllllllllll your friends and fellow petitioners to do the same. I'm thinking like 5 to 7 brand new, incentive-free, over-sticker Pontiacs per person.

Oh, you don't have the money? Well maybe there isn't much of a REAL DEMAND or REAL MARKET for Pontiac after all.

Well I didn't have to scroll too far down the (so far) 61 responses to find people suggesting that GM get rid of Buick instead. So, no thanks, I'm NOT going to sign that petition. I'm tired of this jealousy of "why get rid of Pontiac, why not Buick." I don't hear anyone like me saying get rid of Pontiac. By the way, their petition goal is to get 100,000 signatures. Good luck.

One petitioner signed it who is in Guatemala, does he know Pontiac is only sold in Canada, the USA and Mexico? I guess he could have bought one in Mexico and drove it down, but it did give me a chuckle ...

Instead of wasting time on this petition, spend time at this You Tube site - http://www.youtube.com/user/AutomobileHistoryUSA - enjoying Pontiac's heyday. The way things are going, Chevrolet may be all that is left of GM.

I don't even look at online petitions. I wonder why they even exist but simply to generate public interest. Croc said it best. No offense to anyone on the list, but the only thing that will help is if they put that signature on a cheque made out to the nearest Pontiac dealer.

Petitions don't mean sh@t.

Go to a Pontiac dealer and buy a new one, and allow it to be a profitable sale. Armchair fans cant expect others to buy cars just for them to see on the road.
