Pontiac History (Continued from top)
Pontiac Logo The Pontiac name came from the chief of the Ottawa indians and was a General Motors brand from 1926 to 2002. The first General Motors Pontiac was moderately priced and featured a six cylinder engine. The original Pontiac logo was a native American headdress and the arrowhead logo was adopted in 1956. In 1957 Pontiac introduced the Bonneville and marketed it as a performance car. In 1959 'Wide-Track' suspension was touted as providing better traction and stability. In 1964 John DeLorean introduced the Pontiac GTO, powered by a 389 cubic inch V-8, and it was an instant hit. This was the first mid-sized car with a V8 engine and is often associated with the beginning of the Muscle Car era. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
