I see a stong future for pontiac.They have cleaned up most of their models with a more euro appearance. Better Advertising.Better powertains

I especially like the Commercial with the GTO doing a 180 spin into the garage.

Plus the new line up is beatiful.

Svelte Exterior

Equally stylish interior


Due for a redesign

Glimpses of old Pontiac


Better than imports

Nicely done


Eveyone I've talked to loves it

Awesome


What Miata?

Svelte


Wrong but nicely executed

 

I'm gonna give a big yawn to all but the Civic rip-off.

 

The one thing the GTO has going for it, is the interior is slick. They finally got away from the cheap looking interiors.

 

the interiors look really cluttered. I have visions of having to look for buttons while driving, never a good idea! :shock:

 

Cluttered? All except the Bonneville have standard three dial HVAC. A stero (the GP has XM up in the top) and steering wheel controls to keep your hands on the wheel.

 

I can't wait to see the final out the door "MSRP" price on the new Solstice. I think the interior is more simple and has more class than GM's 30 to 50K vehicles.

The GTO is awesome from inside, and even better, it's getting more power! I have never thought the car was ugly by any means but I wish it didn't look like every other pontiac that passes on the road.

 

Most Pontiac interiors are overdone, plasticky and tacky, even on the new models, feels like you are driving some kind of space ship or the batmobile.

The exception is the GTO, because it did not fall into the hands of pontiac designers and is basically a touched-up monaro interior.

 

The Solstice looks like a Miata on a lift kit.

 

GTO still looks like a Neon from the side.

Fell from the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

 

And you're drooling because of it?

 

Lord of the Smilies decrees that improper use of smilies will not be tolerated here. This one falls in line better:

 

I just believe that the visual on the droolee smiley looks like a gagging motion.
I ask for forgiveness for the mistake. It won't happen again.

As for the GTO:

:bang: :shock: :nono: :crazy: :sleep:

 

Heh, no worries.

 

That commercial is CGI, and Pontiac has been using CGI for about five years now on most of their commercials...doesn't really impress me.

As for GM as a whole, I think with Lutz at the helm, they can't possibly go wrong, but we'll see...(if he can't keep the F-bodies alive...)

 

I give them a big bleeah.

Where's the excitement? :scratch:

 

I agree they do look cluttered!!! Except the GTO (AKA The Monaro) Interior
