I've Seen Some Pontiacs- Feels Like Home :-)


I've now seen about 5 Pontiac Vibes on the roads of Almaty, which makes me happy and reminds me of home. Our family has owned Pontiac Bonnevilles and Grand Prix for a long time, so I feel a special tie to Pontiacs. I've just heard that the Pontiac brand will be axed at the end of 2010 because of GM's restructuring, so that makes seeing a Pontiac a little more special. I've also seen Chevy trucks and SUVs here that are made in partnership with a Russian carmaker, and some Fords, Chryslers and Dodges that were brought into the country.

  1. we've always had Pontiacs around too. Daniel loves them, and we're sad to see them going away. This spring we just bought an 03 Vibe. :)

  3. Hey, cool! I didn't know you were Pontiac people, too! I became pretty familiar with the small, loveable quirks of my 1990 Pontiac Grand Prix while living in Missouri; it was a good reliable car, otherwise.
