once you get to that G6 its a Chevy engine under the hood, it was the 80's when they all lost their own engines and used just Chevy engines.

kinda makes sense, why make 4 gm brands of cars and have different engines, saves a lot of money being the Chevy engine was by far the best one.

I hear ya but I really didn't Care about sharing engines the sport styling was attractive to me. My Dad drove a couple SSEI bonnies I've owned a couple vibes and Grand Prixs and always liked Pontiacs. Life goes on though. lol

ive always like the way Pontiac looked over other cars. you know the same car with different front and back ends.

some thing to do with the dual grill that always got me. then the gmc grill over the chevy truck grill, gmc wins hands down.

whats done is done, not much we can do.
