Here's a crazy idea. Pontiac should be, and is the only GM brand that could be all about 4-door coupes (though i hate that fake marketing term, you understand what I'm referring to). Chevrolet and Opel/Saturn still need to build sedans and crossovers that are practical enough to appeal to the largest amount of people. Since that market is covered, Pontiac can concentrate on building absolutely stunning sculptures-on-wheels that are so low, long and sleek that they are on the verge of being impractical.

Basically, it would be a male-targeted brand where looks and performance (FWD, RWD, AWD, doesn't matter) override the other necessities of practicality and mass-appeal because the other two mainstream GM brands (Chevy & Opel/Saturn) already take care of that. What do you think?
