You may get what you want, soon enough. :AH-HA_wink:

The following cars are the embodiment of the Pontiac formula: Why are they definitive Pontiac? Because they feature(d) class-leading performance, handling, value and/or unprecedented styling. They are or were American cars focused on the purpose of driving and making driving enjoyable, exciting, and fun. The G3 does none of that. A pig snout on an Aveo does not make a Pontiac, thank you. :rotflmao: We have been through this before. GM loses Pontiac, GM loses customers and market share. Some of those customers will not be enticed by a Saturn, just as Olds customers were not enticed by Buick. It does not work that way, I am sorry. This logic applies to all of those brands you have mentioned, just to a different degree.

Here we have another Pontiac model devoid of Pontiac character, attitude, and soul. GM is making it so hard to care about Pontiac anymore.

It is only a matter of time before our politicians hand us rationing cards and make the air smell of dog$h!.

Are the hysterical "Chicken Little" tactics of those pushing the recent Environmental Movement bull$h!? Absolutely. Every day I am bombarded with news of "fear and doubt, fear and doubt" constantly. I am beyond tired of it.

The article fails to mention that the sky will fall, just before Satan comes to walk upon the earth to rain hot acid down our throats.

June 2nd and still nothing. Tell GM's marketing guys to get off of their sorry asses so we can know which name won!

Ha! Knew it. Congratulations, BV. It looks to be a very nice car. I wish you many happy miles with it. As for what you should do first to it, it needs an Eibach kit and a set of eighteen-inch wheels and tires.

Next-generation Canyon 2WD with a Duramax diesel and a manual. Mmmm ...

A 1969 Camaro Z/28 in red.

Show some respect, sir. Your future is in our hands.

Congratulations, Dodgefan! Good luck out there!

My guess: it is either a VW or a 240SX. I am sorry to hear about your grandmother, BV. I had to watch my aunt, a mother of two, die with lung cancer two years ago (the funny thing is that she had never smoked a cigarette in her life). It was probably the most heartbreaking thing in the world I have ever seen. It is such a shock to think about, still.

I am so sorry to hear about your GMC, blu! I hope it is fixed soon.

GM's advertising efforts are pitiful. Here is an idea: instead of turning the ad work over to an agency, GM opens up a full-on advertising department of their own, benchmarking vintage GM ads of the 1960s and early 1970s.

Wow. This is the first post on the "new" boards. Quite something.

Now who put the Blitz badge on their Lotus Elise? j/k Seriously, though, the Speedster is a great car. The Turbo is quite a value from what I understand. I wonder whatever happened to the rumors of Pontiac getting a version of the car back around 1998 ...

I would have to agree. :AH-HA_wink:

You can pay homage to the original design of a model of car without being a shirtless throwback to it. That's just how I think about it. That would be quite logical to assume. I hope the Challenger manages to become a permanent staple in Dodge's lineup like the Mustang is to Ford. I want to see how things progress and evolve. Touché.

I couldn't agree more. When we had our G6, I could not honestly pick out any design cue, inside or out, that I liked. It was all badly thought out and executed. It has been said over and over, but the front and rear of the car is much too narrow and the wheelbase is much too long. In addition to that, the DLO-to-bodyside ratio is quite bad, the headlights are uninteresting and appear cheap, the taillights are also uninteresting and appear cheap, the flowing beltline of the sedan lacks a feeling of unity with the rest of the car, the beltline of the coupe is placed at too high of an angle (which makes the rear of the car look like a cat having its ass scratched from certain perspectives) ... I could go on and on. Honestly, who designs cars like this?
