@Grawdaddy: I beg to disagree. There is NO WAY you can shake a stick at the websites you get when you Google “Bring Back Pontiac”. I never said that this was a rigorous, scientific, foolproof method of assessing Pontiac’s popularity (and hence the demand for the brand). If there WERE such a method, we wouldn’t be having this discussion about the viability of a revived Pontiac brand, as such discussion would be moot. In Economics, this state of uncertainty is said to be precipitated by “imperfect information.” Still, there is no way you can shake a stick at those websites. They DO say something about the demand for Pontiac. I think it’s quite absurd that someone can look at that, and then say it “really doesn’t have much going for it”. And, we will probably CONTINUE to have this discussion UNTIL:
1. The demand for Pontiac is definitively ascertained, OR…
2. Pontiac returns, OR…
3. GM ITSELF says Pontiac WON’T return. That’s GM ITSELF, not YOU or anyone else on this thread. Last I heard, GM said it “would never say never” to Pontiac.
