2005 Pontiac Pursuit sketch

GM releases sketch of Pontiac Pursuit

Sketch of upcoming 2005 Pontiac Pursuit
by Staff posted Aug 8, 2003
Think you'll be in pursuit of a small car in the next few years? GM has a number of products due for release in Canada that it hopes will capture buyers' hearts.

The 2005 Pontiac Pursuit is so named because it implies "performance, adventure and excitement," according to Donna Martin, marketing manager for small and sporty cars at GM of Canada. The automaker released on Aug. 7, 2003 a sketch of the upcoming model which will be built on GM's new Delta Architecture.

Both the Pursuit and its sibling, the Chevrolet Cobalt, will feature clean, contemporary designs, spacious interiors and excellent dynamic performance," GM said. Target customers will be those who are looking for a small, economical car, but with more features and an "upscale look and feel."

Both will appeal to consumers who want the size and efficiency of a small car, but with desirable features, better performance and an upscale look and feel.

The Pursuit sedan is set for launch in 2005, with the Pursuit Coupe following in 2006.

Trying to look like crap. Harder and harder. Come on Detroit. When will it be time to start focusing!!! After you lose the 1st and 2nd place? Way too late by then.

That ain't bad at all. I like. Has anyone else noticed the size of car grills and emblems nowadays. They are outta control. All new cars are SUV like with these huge grills.

Tons better than the sunfire.

GM's rebadges are shameless. I suppose the grill looks a little better than the Cobalts.

I like how you grouped the G35 in with the civic and cavalier

Reminds me of the Mazda 3.

I saw the Cobalt in person.. It's actually not bad at all - especially the 2 door.. For the price range, and it's competition, it looks to be competitive. It's a far improvement from the Cavalier & Sunfire.

Some people's ignorance and hatred for certain brands (i.e. Ford & GM products) clouds their judgement.

I'm not saying this car will take the industry by storm, or even be a better car than the Civic, Mazda 3, etc.. but it's far from a POS.

Did you drive one? Did you even see one in person? My guess is no, so how can you make that statement? Just because it's a Pontiac?

Reminds me of some of your R&P statments with no intelligent argument to back it up

for any HP/TQ # x/x, who fucking cares?

first, there no chance in hell that the HP/TQ #s will be interesting, and secondly, even if they were slightly impressive, nobody from this forum would give a fuck about this car.

hopefully.
