Could Pontiac come back?

Anyway that a car company could come back?

and why the hell would GM let Pontiac go? How about GMC they shoulda did that because I see more GP's G6's and Solstice's around more than any other damn car
 


its a possibility, but highly unlikely.

private parties have offerd to buy the brand and tooling, but GM wont let it go for the fact they couldnt have control over what product would be produced.

the only reason buick stayed onboard was because of how freakin well they sell over seas, theyre cheap luxury cars over yonder. so instead of keeping the GM fans happy with performance cars in the US market, GM wants to make their money from overseas becauce thats a much bigger market.

still pontiac might comeback, the G8 chassis is returning just as a chevy
 
bring pontiac back as a niche sporty add on, so G8 with the new v6, V8.
Trans am off the camaro, and re badged cruze and call it the tempest.
 
Many Pontiacs are rebadged from other brands or are shared platforms. No point to bringing Pontiac back.
 


They didn't get rid of GMC cause that's their truck brand. Ever seen a GMC 6500 pulling a tractor trailer? There's probably as many of them sold as there were Pontiac's sold in Pontiac's last few years.
 


i dont care. there will always be tons of choices in cars for me so a few of the companies being gone (that were redundant anyway) isnt going to affect me.
 
I would love to see the return of the DeLorean. I bet you could alot with that Lotus-like platform.

But thats not gonna happen. Not even John DeLorean himself, who by the way was the architect of the old-school GTO, Firebird, and Grand Prix, could bring back his own brand before he died 6 years ago.

I like Pontiac but theres plenty of other "fish in the sea" as far as platforms/brands.
 


heres a thought, bring them them all back, and let them share frames, but keep the body and engine designers/builders seperate from eachother like the old old days, then the damn cars wouldn't look so much a like and the motors would be different and one would be better than the other, not just cheaper
