ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS
On November 1, 2007 General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release
announcing October 2007 sales. The release is as follows:
GM Reports 310,008 October Deliveries, Posting Third Consecutive
Year-Over-Year Monthly Increase
(Monthly comparison percentages are adjusted for sales days unless
noted. Annual and calendar year-to-date comparisons are unadjusted.)
o Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac Increased Sales Year-Over-Year
o Full-Size Utilities and All-New Crossovers Post Significant Gains
o 2008 Malibu Orders Outpace Available Supply
o All-New CTS Drives 20 Percent Cadillac Sales Increase
DETROIT - GM dealers in the United States delivered 310,008 vehicles in October,
8,700 more vehicles when compared with year-ago performance, outpacing an
industry expected to show a volume decline of about 4 percent.
For the third consecutive month, on an unadjusted basis, total sales increased,
with October up 3 percent. When adjusted for selling days, sales declined 1
percent. It is anticipated that GM will see its fourth consecutive month with
market share above 24 percent. Since August, market share is up more than 1
point, to 25.1 percent, compared with the same three month period last year.
The month's 229,294 retail deliveries demonstrated solid performance despite
continuing industry softness. GM retail sales were led by brisk retail sales of
full-size utilities, mid-utility crossovers, the Cadillac CTS, and the Chevrolet
Aveo, Cobalt and HHR. The Saturn division showed yet another retail sales
increase, up 7 percent.
"Our strong market share performance and our ability to outpace industry trends
on volume demonstrates the consumer acceptance of our new products," said Mark
LaNeve, GM North America vice president, Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing.
"Over the past two years, our new products including the Chevrolet Silverado,
GMC Sierra, Cadillac CTS, full-size utilities, and mid-crossovers have all
gained retail share following launch. Our committed dealer team has really
stepped up to the plate, pushing all of GM's brands above the industry average
in the recently released J.D. Power Customer Satisfaction Index."
Cadillac CTS total sales surged 75 percent, compared with year-ago performance,
due to the strength of the all-new CTS, now in showrooms. GMC Acadia, Saturn
OUTLOOK and Buick Enclave together had total sales of more than 12,800 vehicles,
pushing a more than 320-percent increase in GM's mid-crossover segment.
Additionally, Cadillac's SRX luxury crossover saw a total sales increase of 37
percent. Total sales of the fuel-efficient Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 were
up 81 percent, Chevrolet Aveo was up 58 percent and HHR was up 70 percent
compared with last October.
Vehicles with retail sales increases, compared with year-ago levels, include:
Chevrolet Aveo, Cobalt, Tahoe, Suburban, and HHR; Saturn ION; GMC Yukon and
Yukon XL; Cadillac CTS and SRX; Pontiac G5, Grand Prix and Vibe.
"Cadillac CTS and Buick Enclave have two of the fastest turn rates in the
industry," LaNeve added. "And while it is still very early, Malibu demand and
customer feedback has been sensational. It's products like these that have
enabled us to buck recent industry trends."
Quality, reliability and durability (QRD) remain key factors when purchasing a
new vehicle. An increasing number of consumers cite GM's willingness to stand
behind its quality as a reason to buy a new GM vehicle. GM's 5 Year/100,000 Mile
Powertrain Limited Warranty continues to be a better choice for customers.
GM's coverage focuses on the complete ownership experience and includes other
provisions that competitors do not offer, including transferability to the next
owner, more complete coverage of parts, and coverage for new and certified used
vehicles. In addition, GM offers superior complementary programs, such as
courtesy transportation and roadside assistance. "GM provides the best coverage
in the industry. We take care of the vehicle and the owner like no other
manufacturer," LaNeve added.
Certified Used Vehicles Sales
October 2007 sales for all certified GM brands, including GM Certified Used
Vehicles, Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, Saturn Certified Pre-Owned
Vehicles, Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, and HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned
Vehicles, were 39,919 vehicles, down nearly 7 percent from last October. Total
year-to-date certified GM sales are 442,110 vehicles, up 1 percent from the same
period last year.
GM Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-selling manufacturer-certified
used brand, posted 34,843 sales, down 6 percent from last October. Year-to-date
sales for GM Certified Used Vehicles are 388,442 vehicles, up 3 percent from the
same period in 2006.
Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles posted October sales of 3,255 vehicles,
down 11 percent from last October. Saturn Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold
1,173 vehicles in October, down 9 percent. Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles
sold 518 vehicles, down 13 percent, and HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold
130 vehicles, up 59 percent.
"While sales of GM Certified Used Vehicles were lower this October, year-to-date
sales are up 3 percent and we expect to continue to surpass last year's
category-leading annual sales," said LaNeve.
"Our customers enjoy a broad selection of fully inspected and reconditioned
late-model used vehicles with the peace-of-mind assurances of one of the
industry's best warranty programs," LaNeve added.
GM North America Reports October 2007 Production, 2007 Fourth-Quarter Production
Forecast Unchanged at 1 Million Vehicles
In October, GM North America produced 423,000 vehicles (152,000 cars and 271,000
trucks). This is down 5,000 units or 1 percent compared to October 2006 when the
region produced 428,000 vehicles (174,000 cars and 254,000 trucks). (Production
totals include joint venture production of 18,000 vehicles in October 2007 and
19,000 vehicles in October 2006.)
Additionally, GM North America's 2007 fourth-quarter production forecast is
unchanged at 1 million vehicles (334,000 cars and 666,000 trucks). In the
fourth-quarter of 2006 the region produced 1.107 million vehicles (446,000 cars
and 661,000 trucks).

press release and related comments by General Motors management, we use words
like "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "forecast," "objective," "plan," "goal"
and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, representing our
current judgment about possible future events. We believe these judgments are
reasonable, but actual results may differ materially due to a variety of
important factors. Among other items, such factors might include: the pace of
introductions and market acceptance of new products; the effect of competition
on our markets and significant changes in the competitive environment; price
increases or shortages of fuel; and changes in laws, regulations or tax rates.
GM's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q
provide information about these factors, which may be revised or supplemented in
future reports to the SEC on Form 10-Q or 8-K.
