Well...I guess I just disagree, here. And so does JDPower......
GM is currently, imo, the most customer-focused car company out there right now. Their dealerships on the other hand are a different case altogether. But still, GM dealers rate very high on customer-satisfaction surveys, well above most of the imports.

Build a performance car and then violate its warranty when people drive it like a performance car? That's a great deal, Lets see I'll make a boat and guarrenty it for four times its value but the warrenty is void if it come in contact with the following chemicals H20 Argon, Nitrogen or see Lee Iaccoca and fail to get out of his way.

It sounds to me like you're describing Nissan, or Toyota....as for the performance warranty thing...I assume you're speaking about the Corvette. That car can take care of itself under racing conditions, and so there shouldn't be any warranty issues...IF you're not a suck-driver, which is why they shun racing in the warranty. Let's put it this way, how would you like to warranty a screwdriver. And some fool uses it to hammer a nail, and brings it back all bent, crying. You'd tell them to take a hike.
As far as your comments on Buick. I can't disagree with you regarding their recent lineup (EXCLUDING the Enclave, and LaCrosse). Those two exceptions define their future....it will have its identity back very soon. It's already spanking Lexus in quality ratings.

Now it may simply be called a Chevy Firebird, however that would be fine by the fans..

That's a bold prediction...I think you are right about ressurecting only one Pontiac, but a "Chevy Firebird"??...$20 sound good?
