correct. i mean obviously i love both but it didnt make sense to kill off the RWD intermediate. That car was one of their best sellers. also they needed to build off the x-body(ciera, century, 6000, celebrity) more like chrysler did with the K-car. cars like the calais, somerset, beretta…those are the cars that gave GM a bad name in the 90’s, they were crap. most pontiacs in th early to mid 90’s were crap. FWD regal, delta, dusbuster mini vans, bonneville. CRAP!
Olds was always steady. Corporate builds killed olds. people didnt buy olds to get the same **** they could get in a ponticrap…they wanted olds quality. olds never lost GM money its just that by the end they just gave them the returns of say a savings bond instead of stocks. GM blew it taking on saab and their insistance on pushing saturn for the youth crowd… saturn failed miserably except with lesbians.
