I seriously doubt that GM will abandon FWD and "off" the plants that make the parts!? From a fuel effiency, packaging and safety standpoint, FWD is a very good idea. GM will continue to make small and midsize FWD vehicles for the other divisions. If GM makes Pontiac the performance division and is all RWD, they will need to market and educate the public very well. If done right, it could turn the division, and possibly GM around.
