As of 2010, General Motors will no longer produce new Pontiacs, but support for current and future owners won’t be shelved. In the meantime, Pontiac has reassured us that operations will continue to run normally, meaning warranties will be honored just as they were before the announcement.
Other concerns for Pontiac owners include the availability of repair parts as well as resale value. Replacement parts won’t be an issue because GM will continue to make parts for Pontiac cars. In fact, they’re still producing parts for Oldsmobile, which was axed in 2004.
The resale value of Pontiacs will likely take a hit; the same was true for Oldsmobile cars after the brand was killed. For more information, see our full coverage of Pontiac news at our KickingTires blog.

I bought the 2007 Solstice when it first came off the assembly line and lost it unfortunately in a headon collison. I was very impressed with the safety benefits and was only mildly injured from the Toyota landing on my hood. It was a total though. I had to wait for 6 months to get my 2008 GXP off the assembly line in Deleware. I love my car, but am worried about parts and service. Is it absolete. However, I am very disappointed in Pontiac as it has been around forever and remember the muscle cars of yesterday. Apparently they couldn't manage the company correctly and now I have no resale value. But I will keep it and maybe someday it will be worth something. What is next???
