Pontiac Grand Prix

The Pontiac Grand Prix made its first appearance in 1962 and started as a sportier Catalina coupe. But thanks to the team of lead engineer John DeLorean the 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix was unveiled on a G-body platform and featured massive performance and styling upgrades. The smaller, lighter car was a marketing and engineering milestone and is acclaimed to be the first American car to be downsized successfully.
