Pontiac, 84, RIP

DETROIT ? Pontiac, the brand that invented the muscle car under its flamboyant engineer John Z. DeLorean, helped Burt Reynolds elude Sheriff Justice in ?Smokey and the Bandit? and taught baby boomers to salivate over horsepower, but produced mostly forgettable cars for their children, will endure a lonely death on Sunday after about 40 million in sales.
Pontiac, 84, Dies of Indifference

On bias ply tires?

I'd still love to get my hands on an 09 G8.

Sucks to see GM let the brand die. I'm sure there are still some diehard Pontiac fans out there so I think they will resurface again in the future.

In the real world, GM itself would be dead.

Many GTOs were equipped from the factory with Goodyear Red Stripe Power Cushion Ployester/Fiberglass Bias-Ply tires similar to this one:

I always liked Pontiacs.

You could put "go-faster" racing slicks on your goat — not street legal — bleach them out before you street raced. With a 4:56 rear end you could smoke them out from the line !!!

It was announced last year they'd be dropping the line and they stopped producing vehicles then as well. Its just officially dead now and being dropped from all the dealerships.
