Supposedly, they might not be closing down Pontiac, but will change it over to a "niche" car company, meaning that Pontiac would probably only sell their Solstice, G8, G6, and whatever "sporty" cars they have that I forgot to mention. That, and they won't be bringing out the Pontiac SUT.

The problem is that it would be based on the G8 platform, so even a base model SUT would be like mid-20 grand. It woulda been a pretty sweet truck though. They shoulda called it the El Camino. That woulda saved it!

I think they've been making them in Australia since the 90's. The ones down there are fawsome! They have races for them and everything! That's when you start talking about some $80,000 trucks! That's what the SUT was supposed to be to a lesser extent. Those trucks were amazing.

I'll post some pics if I find any.

There you go. Now, imagine that with about 200 more horsepower, lowered about 4 inches, and with some wide racing tires, and that's the kind of racing they have in Australia. Cool

Gm is my favorate company but they f'd up bad, if they get rid of Hummer who cares? the unstoppable H1 is discontinued, so it only leaves the chevy tahoe being put inside a H2 body and that stupid H3, get rid of Hummer! then mabey even GMC can go there is not much to GMC but a name... the seirra is nice but chevy has the silverado that has a more respected and well know name and then the yukons are just a chevy Burban and rest of gmc is suv's...GMC= all the same as chevy with a little more luxury.... keep Chevy and Pontiac!
