Take a look at this cool picture promoting the Pontiac P-Car from way back in 1982. You know, they weren't even sure what to call the car yet! The picture suggests they were thinking of naming it "Sunfire," but they ended up using that name for a different Pontiac car in 1995. The name they were originally going to use was "Pegasus," which you can see on the winged horse emblem on the car. But they changed their minds because they were worried people might not know how to say "Pegasus." It seems a bit silly, especially when you consider the name they ended up choosing: the Pontiac Fiero (1984-1988).
