Is the pontiac brand a mistake to get rid of?
Pontiac is to be discontinued in 2010 what are your thoughts on this?
I think it is wrong, it is one step too push people to other side which are foreign manufactures, Plus Pontiac has made some excellent cars.
Personally I think this blows and I guess my next car will be a ford fusion.
Pontiac is still revelant today because alot of people still drive them and purchase them for various reasons, for me it is the look and dependability I've owned 3 pontiac and all have been decent dependable cars after 10 years.
oldsmobile would of been a better choice!

I think it is wrong. I love Pontiac, that is all I have ever owned. A !988 Firebird, a 1993 Sunbird and I am still driving my 1998 Sunfire. I was going to purchase a G6 when I had a few other bills paid off, but that may not be happening now. It depresses me that they make the choice to get rid of Pontiac when they have been around for a very long time. They have always been dependable cars. They made the wrong choice, Buick or GMC should have went first.

Pontiac is now officially dead as of yesterday.
But they plan to sell all Pontiac cars by 2010.
The Pontiac Solstice still lives as a Saturn Sky.
The Pontiac G5 still lives as a Chevy Cobalt.
The Pontiac G8 will still live as a new Chevy Camaro SS Sedan.
Pontiac Torrent will still exist as a Saturn Vue.
You could still but Pontiacs. They would just have different names.

i agree with the buick comment. at the same time the big three are in a bad spot financially, so each has to come up with ways to cut expenses. i know that the line does have some very reliable cars, but there are still some lemons. my project car is none other than a 1968 GTO with the ho 400.

I think they should dump Buick instead..but they are all the same anyway.
um, if you have the newer GTO..its really a "Holden" just badged like a Pontiac..

Please tell me how Pontiac is relevant today?
Unfortunately, it's not, and GM can't sustain the brand or the same business model anymore.
