sorry i noticed a typo in your post steve

its actually "we build excrement"
I've heard rumors that Pontiac might go the way of Oldsmobile in a few years. Who knows. Nothing they build is interesting to me.

i agree, caddys are selling i see them everywhere (especially here in nyc). fwd v8 is lthe complete opposite of what american performace and heritage inherantly is. pontiac may be joining plymoth, oldsmobile, AMC, and any other ameircan car maker you can think of that has gone chapter 11

The front wheels measure 18 x 8 inches and are mounted on P255/45R18 W speed-rated tires, while the rear wheels measure 18 x 7 inches and are wrapped by P225/50R18 W speed-rated tires. The wider front wheels help the Grand Prix GXP achieve more neutral cornering characteristics, while bolstering overall handling and braking of the high-performance sedan. In short, the wide front wheels and tires help the Grand Prix GXP push the limits of front-wheel-drive handling capability.

That's my favorite part . . . . .
thats the part that says "we're desperate"..."push the limits of frontwheel drive handling capability", too bad the limits are about equal to the withstanding limitations of the '05 camaro selling
