Really have no idea where to post this, but I found myself driving behind this guy this morning and couldn't resist grabbing a pic with my phone.

I'm sure he has no idea how awesome it would be to have that plate!

So unfortunate. However, GM has not relinquished the brand, nor that of Saturn or Olds. So much history in two of those brands. My grand father, father and father in law all worked at the Pontiac plant, as did I. Some day, when I have time, I'll post what led to Pontiac's downfall. It was ugly.

So cool! One time a long time ago shortly after I got my Nikon N80 I saw a license plate that was N80-SLR.
