I have loved them from day #1.
Too bad I could never afford (or justify affording?) one.

I did rent them a couple times when visiting my mom in California - and even the R/T-auto (read: 5.7L), I loved the seat time I had in them.
Here as well on the Challenger! Never been a Camaro fan. I owned one for a short time. And the newer models just never caught on very well. Kind of like the Corvette , I have owned an older one and a new one and didn't care for or keep either . I don't like putting my cars on like a pair of pants. But I sure don't like seeing the old cars and old brands go away. I don't understand why the Pontiac went away because they were popular for decades. As far as electric cars are concerned I will NEVER own one. For many reasons that I won't get into as I don't talk politics or the whole climate thing.

Pontiac started screwing up in the 80s with a lot of their models and continued with it to the end. Models didn't sell because of poor engineering. People faithful to Pontiac had had enough. Same with Oldsmobile. I agree Buick should have gone, but the "older" buyers would have gone nuts with GM canceling them. Now that I'm in the "older" bracket, I still can't see why Buick is still around.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
