I hate to say it, but I think Saturn has more recognition and loyalty than Pontiac at this point.

Having a GM dealership with 6 brands is still too many. 3 or 4 is probably more reasonable with no model overlap. Toyota who is taking over in market share has what, 2 brands? Nissan = 2, Honda = 2 as well.

I know we love those old monikers, but times have changed. both the business and brands shoudl as well.
Toyota has 3, Toyota, Lexus and Scion.
