What Happened to the Pontiac Concept This Year?
I thought there was going to be a Pontiac Sedan Concept at NAIAS, possibly the G8. Did it get changed to a different auto show this year, or did it get dropped? Or did I just read some bad info somewhere.
Re: What Happened to the Pontiac Concept This Year?
I have read that there is to be a 2007 or 2008 G8 from Pontiac, and it is to be built off the New Zeta (read this after work was resumed).
So who knows when we will see the production version. Or even Preproduction.

I've seen other mentions of it though.
We'll see.
I would think that GM would need more than a New Camaro and GTO on the Zeta to be even usuable as a platform.

I think the RWD sedan rumors are probably just a little early. We could see something at Chicago, typically the Pontiac/Buick show, but likely we will see the Acadia and Outlook as the only new cars.
There was just a hint on C&G from AH-HA that the GTO would come back with a twist. I will leave that open to interpretation as he has done.

maybe they decided not to show it after the camaro stole the show. they could have realized the pontiac wouldnt have got much attention at all bc of the camaro so they will wait for another show; probably chicago (my guess)

Of course, such an idea would be completely rejected on sites like this...after all, the GTO has ALWAYS, (well since 2004, anyways), been a 2+2 coupe.
Pontiac is trying to make the case for an interesting product here...I hope it works out for them.
