Brian_E: I can’t understand how ANYONE who truly loves the Pontiac brand can EVER say–under ANY circumstances–that he doesn’t want it back. That simply blows my mind. And let me clear-up the confusion: YES, I want Pontiac back; IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM that GM pleases. Beggars can’t be choosy. I INSIST that ANY Pontiac is better than NO PONTIAC AT ALL. Until Pontiac is back, everyone who drives a Pontiac (including me) is driving an orphan. That’s a stigma that the Pontiac brand doesn’t deserve, and neither do we who own and drive them. Since when was half a loaf better than none? How can it be better that the Pontiac brand remain in the grave? Such a great brand should not have been PUT in the grave in the FIRST place. Are we to enjoy saying, “I love a DEAD car brand”? The Pontiac brand deserves better, and so do we. Let’s assume that GM brings the brand back, but not with its great former musclecar/performance vehicles. I INSIST: Better THAT than DEAD.
