Vibe





New for 2010:
  • Exterior color: Ignition Orange Metallic replaces Mystic Blue Metallic
  • Air conditioning now standard on all models
  • Luggage rack available on AWD models
  • Cargo management package and Sun & Sound package available on base 1.8L models

Note: Yes, that means that there will NOT be a 2010 G8.

The last Pontiac will be a Toyota, how sad.

Only Vibe is listed. I think plans changed. I had already heard no G6 or G8, so this is not a surprise.

Re: Meet Your 2010 Pontiac Lineup; ONE MODEL!

That is sad. They could have at least made the last Pontiac a G8 GXP or Solstice GXP Coupe, anything other than the rebadged Toyota.

Re: Meet Your 2010 Pontiac Lineup; ONE MODEL!

Is it possible that Pontiac brand lives on through the Vibe's model cycle?

If so could it be resurrected?

Even though it was produced for a short time its a horrible car and will never be valuable.

So the G8 is discontinued for 2010, So does this mean GM is maybe preparing to launch a G8 as an Impala?

Re: Meet Your 2010 Pontiac Lineup; ONE MODEL!

That's a total slap in the face to all Pontiac enthusiasts. I would say it's a blatent F U to all of those who have supported GM over the years, but I can no longer give them credit for planning anything, good or bad. Totally pathetic.

Does Toyota even sell the Matrix anymore?
