ITEM 5.  OTHER ITEMS

On November 1, 2002, General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release
announcing October production results and increased fourth quarter production
forecast. The release is as follows:

              GM Reports October Sales of 391,070, Down 32 Percent

             GM Sales Up 7 Percent from September, and Retail Sales
                          Up 15 Percent from September
   Trucks Maintain Industry-Record Pace; October Car Sales Decrease 40 Percent
         GM Announces October Production Results; Q4 Forecast Increased

DETROIT - General Motors Corp. dealers sold 391,070 new cars and trucks in
October in the United States, down 32 percent versus October 2001 when GM posted
exceptional sales with its "Keep America Rolling" marketing program. GM's
overall truck sales were down 26 percent, and GM car sales decreased 40 percent.
When compared to September, GM posted a 7 percent overall sales gain, and retail
sales increased 15 percent.

"Looking at the broader picture, we are pleased with our overall performance for
the first 10 months of the year," said Bill Lovejoy, group vice president of
North America Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "Our October retail sales
were significantly higher than September results, but were down compared to an
exceptionally strong October in 2001. In addition, GM's October market share
results will likely exceed its year-to-date market share performance.

"Importantly, GM trucks remain on pace to set the all-time industry record, and
we continue to post significant market share gains in many key segments of the
business," Lovejoy said.

GM Truck Sales
With two months remaining in the calendar year, GM's SUV sales have already
exceeded the industry calendar year record that GM set last year. For the
calendar year through October, GM utility vehicle sales were up 23 percent. GM's
midsize utility sales for the same period were 470,905, up 36 percent. Full-size
utility vehicle sales for the calendar year through October (456,689) have
increased 4 percent.

In October, GM delivered 110,541 utility vehicle sales, down 16 percent. GM's
midsize utility sales for the month were 51,518, down 12 percent. GM's October
sales of full-size utility vehicles (42,015 units) decreased 38 percent from
exceptional year-ago levels.

GM Car Sales
Overall GM car sales were down 40 percent in October. However, two of GM's
newest passenger car products posted impressive gains compared with their
September 2002 sales. The Cadillac CTS had strong monthly sales of 4,848 units,
up 26 percent, and the Pontiac Vibe sold 6,509 units, up 41 percent for the same
period. The Chevrolet Impala also had a healthy month with 17,306 sales in the
very competitive midsize segment of the passenger car market.

Certified Used Cars
GM's industry-leading certified used car program sold approximately 40,783 total
certified used vehicles in October, including the Cadillac, Saturn and Saab
certified brands. The GM Certified Used Vehicle brand alone had another strong
month, selling 34,839 units. "Our GM dealers, GMAC and the entire VSSM
organization are making our certified used vehicle business very successful for
General Motors," Lovejoy said.

GM Announces October Production Results and Revised
Fourth-Quarter Production Forecast
In October, GM produced 578,300 vehicles (242,300 cars and 336,000
trucks) in North America, compared to 485,000 vehicles (215,000 cars and 270,000
trucks) produced in October 2001. (Production totals include joint venture
production of 17,000 vehicles in October 2002 and 10,000 vehicles in October
2001.)

In addition, GM is revising its fourth-quarter production forecast for North
America to 1.410 million units (600,500 cars and 809,500 trucks). The current
estimate is up 10,000 units from the production guidance given in GM's recent
third-quarter earnings' release. In the fourth-quarter of 2001, GM produced
1.294 million units (573,000 cars and 721,000 trucks) in North America.

GM also announced revised fourth-quarter production forecasts for its
international regions:

  - GM Europe - The regions' revised fourth-quarter production forecast is
    469,000 vehicles, down 3,000 vehicles from last month's forecast.

  - GM Asia Pacific - GM Asia Pacific's revised fourth-quarter production
    forecast is 82,000 vehicles, up 8,000 vehicles from last month's initial
    forecast.

  - GM Latin America, Africa and the Middle East - The region's revised
    fourth-quarter production forecast is 166,000 units, up 11,000 units
    over last month's forecast.

GM cars and trucks are sold under the following brands: Chevrolet, Pontiac,
Buick, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, GMC, Saturn, Hummer, Saab, Opel, Vauxhall and
Holden. GM parts and accessories are marketed under the GM, GM Goodwrench and
ACDelco brands through GM Service and Parts Operations.

Note: GM sales and production results are available on GM Media Online at

release and related comments by General Motors management, our use of the words
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate," forecast," "objective," "plan," "goal" and
similar expressions is intended to identify forward looking statements. While
these statements represent our current judgment on what the future may hold, and
we believe these judgments are reasonable, actual results may differ materially
due to numerous important factors that are described in GM's most recent report
on SEC Form 10-K (at page II-15, 16) which may be revised or supplemented in
subsequent reports on SEC Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Such factors include, among
others, the following: changes in economic conditions, currency exchange rates
or political stability; shortages of fuel, labor strikes or work stoppages;
market acceptance of the corporation's new products; significant changes in the
competitive environment; changes in laws, regulations and tax rates; and, the
ability of the corporation to achieve reductions in cost and employment levels
to realize production efficiencies and implement capital expenditures at levels
and times planned by management.

ITEM 5.  OTHER ITEMS

On November 1, 2002, General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release
announcing October production results and increased fourth quarter production
forecast. The release is as follows:

              GM Reports October Sales of 391,070, Down 32 Percent

             GM Sales Up 7 Percent from September, and Retail Sales
                          Up 15 Percent from September
   Trucks Maintain Industry-Record Pace; October Car Sales Decrease 40 Percent
         GM Announces October Production Results; Q4 Forecast Increased

DETROIT - General Motors Corp. dealers sold 391,070 new cars and trucks in
October in the United States, down 32 percent versus October 2001 when GM posted
exceptional sales with its "Keep America Rolling" marketing program. GM's
overall truck sales were down 26 percent, and GM car sales decreased 40 percent.
When compared to September, GM posted a 7 percent overall sales gain, and retail
sales increased 15 percent.

"Looking at the broader picture, we are pleased with our overall performance for
the first 10 months of the year," said Bill Lovejoy, group vice president of
North America Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "Our October retail sales
were significantly higher than September results, but were down compared to an
exceptionally strong October in 2001. In addition, GM's October market share
results will likely exceed its year-to-date market share performance.

"Importantly, GM trucks remain on pace to set the all-time industry record, and
we continue to post significant market share gains in many key segments of the
business," Lovejoy said.

GM Truck Sales
With two months remaining in the calendar year, GM's SUV sales have already
exceeded the industry calendar year record that GM set last year. For the
calendar year through October, GM utility vehicle sales were up 23 percent. GM's
midsize utility sales for the same period were 470,905, up 36 percent. Full-size
utility vehicle sales for the calendar year through October (456,689) have
increased 4 percent.

In October, GM delivered 110,541 utility vehicle sales, down 16 percent. GM's
midsize utility sales for the month were 51,518, down 12 percent. GM's October
sales of full-size utility vehicles (42,015 units) decreased 38 percent from
exceptional year-ago levels.

GM Car Sales
Overall GM car sales were down 40 percent in October. However, two of GM's
newest passenger car products posted impressive gains compared with their
September 2002 sales. The Cadillac CTS had strong monthly sales of 4,848 units,
up 26 percent, and the Pontiac Vibe sold 6,509 units, up 41 percent for the same
period. The Chevrolet Impala also had a healthy month with 17,306 sales in the
very competitive midsize segment of the passenger car market.

Certified Used Cars
GM's industry-leading certified used car program sold approximately 40,783 total
certified used vehicles in October, including the Cadillac, Saturn and Saab
certified brands. The GM Certified Used Vehicle brand alone had another strong
month, selling 34,839 units. "Our GM dealers, GMAC and the entire VSSM
organization are making our certified used vehicle business very successful for
General Motors," Lovejoy said.

GM Announces October Production Results and Revised
Fourth-Quarter Production Forecast
In October, GM produced 578,300 vehicles (242,300 cars and 336,000
trucks) in North America, compared to 485,000 vehicles (215,000 cars and 270,000
trucks) produced in October 2001. (Production totals include joint venture
production of 17,000 vehicles in October 2002 and 10,000 vehicles in October
2001.)

In addition, GM is revising its fourth-quarter production forecast for North
America to 1.410 million units (600,500 cars and 809,500 trucks). The current
estimate is up 10,000 units from the production guidance given in GM's recent
third-quarter earnings' release. In the fourth-quarter of 2001, GM produced
1.294 million units (573,000 cars and 721,000 trucks) in North America.

GM also announced revised fourth-quarter production forecasts for its
international regions:

  - GM Europe - The regions' revised fourth-quarter production forecast is
    469,000 vehicles, down 3,000 vehicles from last month's forecast.

  - GM Asia Pacific - GM Asia Pacific's revised fourth-quarter production
    forecast is 82,000 vehicles, up 8,000 vehicles from last month's initial
    forecast.

  - GM Latin America, Africa and the Middle East - The region's revised
    fourth-quarter production forecast is 166,000 units, up 11,000 units
    over last month's forecast.

GM cars and trucks are sold under the following brands: Chevrolet, Pontiac,
Buick, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, GMC, Saturn, Hummer, Saab, Opel, Vauxhall and
Holden. GM parts and accessories are marketed under the GM, GM Goodwrench and
ACDelco brands through GM Service and Parts Operations.

Note: GM sales and production results are available on GM Media Online at

release and related comments by General Motors management, our use of the words
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate," forecast," "objective," "plan," "goal" and
similar expressions is intended to identify forward looking statements. While
these statements represent our current judgment on what the future may hold, and
we believe these judgments are reasonable, actual results may differ materially
due to numerous important factors that are described in GM's most recent report
on SEC Form 10-K (at page II-15, 16) which may be revised or supplemented in
subsequent reports on SEC Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Such factors include, among
others, the following: changes in economic conditions, currency exchange rates
or political stability; shortages of fuel, labor strikes or work stoppages;
market acceptance of the corporation's new products; significant changes in the
competitive environment; changes in laws, regulations and tax rates; and, the
ability of the corporation to achieve reductions in cost and employment levels
to realize production efficiencies and implement capital expenditures at levels
and times planned by management.
