It's sad to see another legend die. Please share your stories if you have any about Pontiac cars.

" Pontiac Builds Excitement "

"Not anymore......................................"

Too bad Honda doesn't 'build excitement' - I would consider buying one if they did as they have good quality.

1st car: '65 Bonneville Brougham - sold this to a collector when I finished college.

'95 Pontiac Tran Sport SE for 10 yrs. - nice. It had about 135K when sold it.

Chief Pontiac been berry berry good to us. We still have an '01 Bonneville SLE (Black) w/ 167K mi. on it. Running strong still. My wife (still) loves it!

Yes - it's sad to see the Pontiac line orphaned after all these many decades. But as I've seen take place at Kodak - where I currently work- when Chap. 11 Bankruptcy occurs, the Banksters call all the shots.

I briefly had a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am powerful with great highway mileage. I rented the last model Pontiac Vibe for a month: a really nice vehicle.
