...to buy the Pontiac name from GM on the cheap?

I have always experienced a sentimental longing towards older Pontiacs and I really think I can do better than any of those GM guys... mostly, because I actually care about cars. So, common, businessmen, attorneys, venture capitalists, everybody, help me out here - I am not asking for any bail out - just a real start.

I wouldn't count Pontiac totally out. I still think it will return someday as a "niche" brand with limited production (Firebird, GTO, etc).

And if GM still owns them they will be crap. Better to let Vlad buy them, he'd probably do a much better job (at least the trim might not fall off in the first month).

Vlad - That's nice. What if you changed the front with some twin kidney grills?

Well Vlad, still looks better than anything produced by Pontiac for the last 40 years. Good luck. Does anyone else know what Pontiac stands for? (warning: old joke and not PC)
