PontiacKid, many of us while disappointed, well actually shocked at the time; when looking at the recent history and poor product managment we see why Pontiac was canceled as a brand. The bottom line is the market is insanely competitive like never before, GM could not continue to support a brand that lost so much market share while its other key brands were also loosing market share. Pontiac has no global presence this is another issue. Personally one of my all time favorite vehicles is the Pontiac Fiero, love this car. And then as you mention all the other history behind the make. Like its other brands GM really lost sight of its brand integrity and strategy for its brands across the board and the consumer recognized this and moved to other brands and products. And thus the rest is histroy ect… Bankrupt ect…
