    I disagree. for the most part, Pontiac's are just Chevy's with pretty bumpers and a higher price tag.

    I hate to see Pontiac go (or whatever), but if it is for the best, It is for the best. Good luck to GM and I hope that the restructuring goes well.
    Engineering the impossible.

    Yep. Right now the only Pontiac that isn't available as a Chevy or Saturn or other model is the G8, which really just a Pontiac anyway. I'd like to see them make Pontiac the performance brand like they said they would. Chevy would keep the Corvette, naturally, but don't make the Camaro - just make the Firebird as the two door sports coupe, the G8 (or bring back the Grand Prix name!) as the four door sports coupe, and maybe a smaller, dare I say, "ricer" fighter, more or less the G5 or G6. And of course keep the Solstice since Saturn is going away.

    Way too late for that. The Camaro was an expensive project and the reason they went with the Camaro instead of Firebird is they knew it would sell more. They also didn't want to hurt their own sales by having two of the same sports car again, so it was one or the other.
