The Opel-based Commodore was a family, upscale sedan but not the same Commodore it ever was before. Like saying Mustang Mach E a replacement for Mustang Tag: Reverted

A FWD midsize sedan could clearly not replace a RWD fullsize one especially if they were competing in two completely differently segments/classes. This is exactly like saying a Toyota Camry replaced a Lexus GS. Tag: Reverted

In fact that was the Bonneville, and even that is pushing it. The GP and Impala were very close corporate cousins with similar equipment level, therefore it is fair to say the GP was the predecessor along with the last W-body Impala to the very latest Impala generation.

• 10:4710:47, 15 January 2023 diff hist −43‎ Pontiac Grand Prix ‎ There was no direct successor. The G8 and GTO both were sports-focused cars with RWD. GTO a muscle car, G8 a premium sports car (think Acura TL/RL, Lexus IS/GS, and Infiniti G/M). The GP was more of a middle-grounder family barge like the ES and Hyundai Azera, maybe Nissan Maxima or Toyota Avalon. Different demographics too. Tag: Reverted

• 10:4310:43, 15 January 2023 diff hist −69‎ Pontiac G8 ‎ The Grand Prix was not a direct predecessor, that was the Bonneville. GP was a family sedan in the same segment as Accord, Camry, Altima, Mazda6, Legacy, GM's own Impala, Malibu and Grand Am. Bonneville was Pontiac's flagship "luxury sports sedan" as with G8

Back in the old days they used the 110" wheelbase metric to determine size class. Europeans used overall length. However, C&D did say the Grand Prix was smaller than Honda's Accord and Toyota's Camry due to interior dimensions. Tag: Reverted
