Pontiac Parisienne III gallery (1965–1970)
The third generation of full-size Pontiac Parisienne automobiles was produced from 1965 to 1970 primarily at the GM plant in Oshawa, Canada.
The third-generation Pontiac Parisienne full-size cars were built on the General Motors B-body platform and shared most of their mechanical components with Chevrolet Impala and Caprice models, featuring distinct exterior styling and more luxurious interior trims. The lineup offered two-door hardtops, convertibles, four-door sedans, hardtop sedans, and station wagons. Powertrains included robust V8 petrol engines ranging from 4.6 to 7.4 liters paired with manual or automatic transmissions such as Powerglide and Turbo Hydra-Matic. Compared to the previous generation, this iteration introduced a completely redesigned bottle-bottle coke fuselage styling and revised suspension geometry. Throughout its production run, the car received annual cosmetic updates to its grille, lighting, and interior dashboard elements. The primary target markets were Canada and the United States, along with select international markets where right-hand drive configurations were locally assembled.
