Its my understanding that GM is dumping Pontiac and keeping Buick and GMC. Does anyone know why this decision? It seems very silly to keep Buick and even more silly to keep GMC.
Buicks not only are expensive now, but are really advanced, Grandpa/grandma does not want that shit. Grandpa/Grandma wants cheap simple cars with a touch of luxury, like Buick once was. SUV's are useless for these people. Does GM really need to keep this 3 car brand? I mean they already have Caddy.
GMC is nothing but a expensive rebadged Chevy to me. You can probably buy any car they have in Chevy form. This does not make sence either, why have two brands with exactly the same cars? Hell they even look the same. SUV sales have hit rock bottom is is really good to have brand that sells pretty much all SUV's?
Pontiac has a very good deverse lineup. They have the small economical cars (G3, Vibe), the midsize coupes, sedans, and convertibles (G6) the performance sedan (G8) the sports car (Solstace) and the SUV (Torrent). They all look pretty decent also. Although some are rebadges they don't look exactly like the Chevy counter part. Not to mention the history behind pontiac. What can you say about the history of Buick or GMC? The only car of real importance I would say is the GN or maybe the 70's GS, but that's just a rebadged Chevy anyway.
I'm no financial adviser but this decision from GM to ban Pontiac seems retarded and im not just saying this because I drive one.
