2005 Pontiac Pursuit Road Test

What's a Pursuit? Well, if you're from the U.S.A. it probably won't mean much of anything unless you've been surfing the message boards filled with frustrated consumers wishing they had the opportunity to buy Pontiac's latest compact sedan. The Pursuit, which effectively replaces the aging Sunfire in GM Canada's sportiest entry-level division, is integral to success north of the 49th where small cars regularly account for more than 50 percent of new vehicle sales - except for Quebec where compact dominance reaches 65 to 70 percent.
