We survived the end of Edsel and Studebaker, we’ll survive this.

Not being much of a business person, why couldn't GM sell the line (name, brand, etc.) to some entrepreneureal group who could focus on making inexpensive, well-built Pontiacs to appeal to the masses?

Downsizing and smaller companies seems to be where it's at. It might help boost the economy, get people jobs and even make GM some money.
Maybe it's already been looked and dismissed, for all I know. I sure don't know the chances of it making a profit, but I know that there has got to be some people out there that can design a better looking car than what GM has been making lately.

I've often talked about buying the manufacturing rights and drawings (from GM) of the 1957 Chevrolet and begin manufacturing a 21st century version of that car.
