Funny you mention this but when I see Mazda and what they offer it seems they are actually out-"Pontiac ing" what Pontiac puts out on the small end. The Mazdaspeed stuff is really what Pontiac should be trying to do with it's smaller cars. Pontiac will never sell like it sold in the 60's and 70's. It has to find a new spot somewhere between a niche brand and those old numbers. Product again is key, and you are correct I've been one of the biggest detractors of the lame G6. The fugly GXP edition of the G6 with the buck teeth and whale tail spoiler is what is wrong with Pontiac right now. Pontiac needs better product.
Ummm, Exactly. Why were you arguing with me again? Umm, don't you think all GM divisions need smaller and lighter products. Your talking about a line of cars the competition is selling right now. This was my point. Lack of product. Supply and demand. ETC. I'm just not worthy of arguing with you. Your intellect is far beyond mine. I will get on my knees and worship his greatness and his ultimate chariot, the GTO!! Sorry I can't keep a conversation with you, I will retreat to my hole and slide under the rock from which I came. My fellow forum members, witness the wisdom of this supreme mental giant. Please forgive me your excellency if I have offended you in any way.
