Re: Edmunds InsideLine: Pontiac Kills Rear-Wheel-Drive G8

Please say this is Bulls***!!! Or at least that Buick is getting a Zeta-II.

Here's a strange chaos theory. Maybe GM canned G8 as they prepare to buy Chrysler because Dodge will replace Pontiac. All the signs are there
1) Chrysler is in development of the LX successor, LY which looks to be superior to Zeta.
2) GM cancels nearly all of Pontiac's product
3) Dodge is clearly recognized as a brash American performance brand and has a larger customer base than Pontiac.
4) GM talks about buying Chrysler

I can easily see Dodge replacing Pontiac as a much stronger and more focused brand.
