It seems to me that "features" tended to make it on Pontiacs a year or three before Buicks, Chevrolets, etc. which I dig.
Pontiac's "performance packages" seemed to always go a step further than similar vehicles. Ex: Competition Group
Pontiacs were slightly cheaper for the same or better stuff
Stock speaker setups were pretty consistently better than other vehicles in same price range
Pontiacs look cooler than their sister vehicles
They brought the HUD down from Corvettes to a family man's vehicle
A good place to check in on might be like... an f-body board.
