I would like to know

Why can't Pontiac build a Mini competetor based on the Solstice platform with the Hayabusa engine or something close in it?

Small, fast, more fuel efficent.

This could be the future of the new Pontiac.

Hey it shows some original thinking! Sadly it's not feasible...

Because apparently Pontiac can't handle volume numbers, thats for Chevy only.
