    Angry Apparantly official...take it for what it's worth

    http://money.cnn.com/2009/04/24/auto...ex.htm?cnn=yes


    Pontiac sold more cars than Cadillac and twice as many as Buick. The G8 had good reviews, but sales weren't the best. My thing is that the G8 is the best car out there for the money, and IMO the best time to buy is now.

    Lol, ok. I just figured since people were saying wait until it hits CNN.

    On another note, If Pontiac would have made an SUV crossover or something that appealed to those who like the Enclave and such, maybe it would/could remain operational. I know they made the Aztec, but cmon, they deserve a mulligan on that one.

    The odd thing still is NONE of the Detroit news outlets are falling for this yet... Also no one in management that I've talked to has heard a peep about this as well, very strange.

    i'm so pissed i can't breathe. This will kill their historic foothold of being the company that birthed the Muscle car.
