And you don't either. I know for a fact that a percentage of Pontiac owners are going to Chevrolet already. GM won't get all of them back, but they will retain some of them. If GM offers the right incentives to the right people, they will sell cars regardless of "brand loyalty."

Again, letting emotions get in the way of common sense is NOT good business practice. If a division is unprofitable and cannot be salvaged with the resources on hand, it will be killed no matter how many units it sells.

And for the record, Buick and GMC both sold more cars globally than Pontiac.
