That does suck, I hope this economy gets turned around soon. I be mortified if I found out my dealer was closing after waiting in my case, 6 months for a preordered camaro.

fbodfather.. I know this is a stretch but just thought id ask... If this is a gm deal where they are shutting them down.. please ask them to reconsider. they have the best customer service of any dealer i have been to. Trust me Before I found out they were there I had plenty of experience with the rest of the sleezy dealers before.
Like i said I know its a stretch but doesnt hurt to ask. Thanks for taking the time to read my post |

It would be highly unusual for GM to close a dealer down -- I suspect that the dealer has made his decision - |

Wasn't sure if this was gm doing this or just the owner being that everyone is talking about 1700 or so dealers shutting down. But anyway... Thanks again for responding. Hope we can all pull through this tuff time. |

Sorry for the off-topic, but just the official announcement will come on Monday. The actual end of Pontiac likely won't come for some time, maybe even years. These things don't just happen immediately. Also, forever may not be entirely correct either. It isn't common, but it also isn't entirely unheard of for a long-dead brand to be resurrected. Some of the European brands have done that. Who knows, maybe years down the line, under certain market conditions GM (or whatever the entity is at that point...) might want to develop a line of performance oriented cars and they can resurrect the Pontiac name, assuming they keep the rights to it. Or the rights to the brand could be sold and that entity could resurrect it. Who knows?

I hate to say this but in another post about GM bankruptcy I stated I would be much more worried about a local dealer going out of business and losing my depost before my car arrived. This is why I will not buy a Camaro I can't drive home that day.
