As to why Buick remained and Pontiac/Saturn disappeared?

Pontiac and Saturn were losing money. Buick was not (premium price) -- plus as my friend from Ohio points out -we sell many many more in China than we do the United States.
I'd like to think maybe one day Pontiac will come back as a more limited brand with just a couple of cars....maybe they could be profitable that way.

I often wonder if that could happen since they didn't sell it to Penske when he wanted to buy it.

False hope or not....I hope it happens some day

They built some great cars !
