Pontiac is Better!
 
This F-ing guy, a comment from a Motortrend Road Test. Every Pontiac i've been in seemed cheap and cheezy. Not to mention, Pontiac is bankrupt and out of business.

a winner?.......... yea right. i would purchase the pontiac solstice coupe(better than the miata, a true sports car) before this 370z even if i had the money ...........the pontiac solstice coupe has more value.....meaning if the pontiac and 370z would considered price per performance the pontiac is the winner in my book. btw imo the 370z is overpriced. as a enthusiast 30 grand dosent have to be forked over to get a satisfying sports car with great performance.

Hes intitled to his own opinion... I wonder who will honor his warranty if GM somehow goes under. Sounds like some GM employee who is about to get axed to me...

... or just a rice hater.

lol, just sour grapes.

It sounds like this guy is speaking solely from literature. On paper, everything he says can be considered mathematically true... But that's all it is, paper, and numbers. I doubt he's driven any of the 3 cars he listed.

We are responsible for covering the warranties, too. Surprised Barack isn't sending us all to mechanic school to learn how to work on them Chebbies. :icon18:

rofl, that might be coming. After all, we can't let them fail, no matter what!

I wonder if he is aware that the Solstice GXP costs *more* than the 370Z? Unless he is comparing the 173 hp base model to the Z. :wtf2:

I think we have found the root of his problem.

This guy is a tool! Clearly he never saw the video that was posted with Car and Driver testing the 370z, the Solstice, BMW 135i, and the new RX8. The solstice actually came out in 4th during the comparison. They ranged it off of design, 0 - 60, 60 -0, slolom and over all price.

Pontiac is no more. As we shall see soon when the restructuring is complete with GM.

That's if they don't go bankrupt first

"EVEN IF I HAD THE MONEY"

Short on brain cells and short on money obviously go hand in hand in this case. There is a reason for everything.

I like Pontiacs, only because i've been around them for awhile now......talking about the good old ones, not the new fragile ones...lol....even though Pontiac went down, GM is the one giving the warranty.....i really doubt that GM will go bankurpt and disappear.....it's just not going to happen. for sure they will down size and most likely a private company will buy them out when worse comes to worse which isnt right now though.

I hate the Pontiac brand, always have. I can't stand the Grand Prix, or the Grand Am. My wife drives a Vibe and I LOATH that car.
Thankfully I get a VPP discount on Nissans and Infinitis so when her lease is up I'm getting her into a Rogue or EX.

Not sad to see the Pontiac brand go...
