They were big and bold and yes, they were "All New". They looked like no other Pontiac ever had before. They were no longer "an old man's car". They were advertising excitement and style and in a unique styling year, they were among the most attractive of General Motors line-up. considered along with Chevrolet to be more appealing than their older brothers Oldsmobile, Buick, and Cadillac.
1958 PONTIAC
The year was riddled with a recession and some radical styling cues from all of the Big Three.

Well said George. I love the Bonneville and Impalas for 1958.

LOL, of course I didn't say it in my post, but everyone knows that my personal favorite of GM's '58 line-up was the OLDSMOBILE. I'm a lonely man with liking that car.

Lyle Lovett has one titled “Pontiac” but a little to grim for the forum I think.
