Suppose someone wants a small car....can't decide between an Aveo, Vibe, Cobalt/G5, or a Yaris. If the g3 (aveo clone) is available at pontiac, they can test drive it back to back with the Vibe and G5 (kinda one stop shopping, minus the Yaris in my example.) Its not a big deal...but if it can help even a few customers and some may buy it...I don't get why it is such a big deal?
It's a big deal because Pontiac is supposed to be a performance brand. The last thing they need is a 110 HP Daewoo sourced subcompact.
