Again, once the winners gained control of themselves, Oprah led the entire audience outside the studio where all the Pontiacs were assembled, complete with large red bows attached. Then, each new car owner was told to contact a Pontiac dealer to personalize the car, for interior and exterior color. Each car came fully loaded so there was no need to see a features list.

More in the spirit of the "Wildest Dreams Come True" segment, Oprah also started the season off by giving a young woman that had spent her teenage years in foster care and homeless shelters a 4-year college scholarship and a $10,000 wardrobe upgrade and makeover.
The giving didn't stop there either. A houseful of furniture and home electronics was given to a family that cared for eight foster children, as well as a $130,000 check to pay off the mortgage and do much needed home repairs.
In the end the biggest winner might be Pontiac, as it scores immediate recognition as the feel-good automaker on the ultimate feel-good television show. If Pontiac felt it needed a stronger female demographic as part of its G6 customer base, it will without doubt have this now. What a coup!
