Hey man — a sale is a sale; or in Vin Diesel’s words: it doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile — winning is winning.

We were first comparing Pontiac to Chevy and how it was the third best-selling brand in the GM stable. Now you’re telling me it’s not fair to make that comparison. Ultimately, Pontiac ended its life with sub-par vehicles in the G3, G5, G6, Vibe, and Torrent; the G8 and Solstice were great — but weren’t enough… and may have as well been Chevys.

That said, I’m surprised Pontiac even got as far as 40,000 monthly units with that lineup, especially considering the G8 and Solstice were über-niche vehicles.
