You call this ugly?

No.  The very old Corvettes were beautiful.  But anything made since (and including) the Stingray is ---smurfing--- ugly.  Anymore it just looks like a little wedge with a bubble on top.  They're so ugly.  But yeah . . . old ones are great.  It's just that you have to go WAY back to find any good ones.

Yay!!!  They're killing a company that has, with the exception of the Solstice, not made an attractive car in at least 30 years.

Pontiac gave up a long time ago, they didn't even bother to name their cars. They'd just call them all G#.

I think they were trying to emulate European naming conventions. Thats the market GM envisioned Pontiac attracting, though its almost laughable to think someone looking at a 3 Series BMW is going to be comparing it to a G6.

I have to admit I'm a bit bummed by the Pontiac news if its true. The G8 GXP is a cool car that I'd still consider attainable. I really can't justify a 2 door car at this point in my life. I think they would kill Buick first, since the typical Buick buyer is probably buying their last new car.
