ITEM 5.  OTHER ITEMS

On May 1, 2003, General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release announcing
April sales. The release is as follows:


                GM Reports April Sales of 400,687, Down 9 Percent

Truck Sales Up 2 Percent Versus Year-Ago Levels; Large Pickups Up 12 Percent and
Utilities Up 7 Percent
Luxury Vehicle Sales Strong; Saab Up 39 Percent and Cadillac Up 15 Percent


DETROIT - General Motors Corp. dealers sold 400,687 new cars and trucks in April
in the United States. This is a 9 percent decline versus April 2002. GM's
overall truck sales (244,965) were up 2 percent over a year ago, and car sales
in April (155,722) were down 22 percent from the year-ago level.

"Both GM and the industry had a solid month in April, despite some hesitation in
consumer attitudes," said John Smith, group vice president of GM North America
Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "Sales of GM luxury vehicles, large
pickups and large utilities were strong even with the exceptionally competitive
environment. In April, Saab was up 39 percent, Cadillac was up 15 percent and
HUMMER sales continued to grow. Building on this performance and with the
additional 15 new vehicle launches scheduled for this year, we expect continued
improvement in our results over the course of the year."

GM Truck Sales

GM posted industry record April truck sales, up 2 percent from year-ago levels.
It became the first manufacturer to sell more than 90,000 full-size pickups in
the month of April, with 91,077 total sales, up 15.5 percent from last year.
Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra had strong sales, with increases of 14
percent and 15 percent, respectively, over last year.

GM also achieved industry record utility sales for April, with 102,504 total
sales, a 9 percent improvement from year-ago levels. Full-size utilities were up
20 percent, driven by increases for Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, and Chevrolet
Tahoe.

GM Car Sales

GM luxury car sales improved 19 percent in April and were up 8 percent calendar
year-to-date, driven by record April sales of Cadillac CTS and strong Saab 9-3
sales. Saab had record April sales, and calendar year-to-date was up 26 percent.
Cadillac calendar year-to-date sales increased 18 percent.

Certified Used Vehicles

GM's industry-leading certified vehicle program had a record month in April with
approximately 43,371 total certified used vehicle sales, including the Cadillac,
Saturn and Saab certified brands. The previous record was 42,642 units in August
2002. The GM Certified Used Vehicle brand alone also posted record numbers,
selling 36,423 vehicles, which is 39 percent higher than last year. "April was a
fantastic month for our certified used vehicle program," Smith said. "As more
dealers get involved in the program, and more consumers become aware of it, we
continue to outpace the growth of the segment."

GM Announces April Production Results; 2003 Q2 GM North America Production

In April, GM North America produced 461,000 vehicles (179,000 cars and 282,000

trucks) produced in April 2002. (Production totals include joint venture
production of 14,800 vehicles in April 2003 and 10,900 vehicles in April 2002.)

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 11-15, 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 May 1, 2003, General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release announcing
April sales. The release is as follows:

                GM Reports April Sales of 400,687, Down 9 Percent

Truck Sales Up 2 Percent Versus Year-Ago Levels; Large Pickups Up 12 Percent and
Utilities Up 7 Percent
Luxury Vehicle Sales Strong; Saab Up 39 Percent and Cadillac Up 15 Percent

DETROIT - General Motors Corp. dealers sold 400,687 new cars and trucks in April
in the United States. This is a 9 percent decline versus April 2002. GM's
overall truck sales (244,965) were up 2 percent over a year ago, and car sales
in April (155,722) were down 22 percent from the year-ago level.

"Both GM and the industry had a solid month in April, despite some hesitation in
consumer attitudes," said John Smith, group vice president of GM North America
Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "Sales of GM luxury vehicles, large
pickups and large utilities were strong even with the exceptionally competitive
environment. In April, Saab was up 39 percent, Cadillac was up 15 percent and
HUMMER sales continued to grow. Building on this performance and with the
additional 15 new vehicle launches scheduled for this year, we expect continued
improvement in our results over the course of the year."

GM Truck Sales

GM posted industry record April truck sales, up 2 percent from year-ago levels.
It became the first manufacturer to sell more than 90,000 full-size pickups in
the month of April, with 91,077 total sales, up 15.5 percent from last year.
Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra had strong sales, with increases of 14
percent and 15 percent, respectively, over last year.

GM also achieved industry record utility sales for April, with 102,504 total
sales, a 9 percent improvement from year-ago levels. Full-size utilities were up
20 percent, driven by increases for Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, and Chevrolet
Tahoe.

GM Car Sales

GM luxury car sales improved 19 percent in April and were up 8 percent calendar
year-to-date, driven by record April sales of Cadillac CTS and strong Saab 9-3
sales. Saab had record April sales, and calendar year-to-date was up 26 percent.
Cadillac calendar year-to-date sales increased 18 percent.

Certified Used Vehicles

GM's industry-leading certified vehicle program had a record month in April with
approximately 43,371 total certified used vehicle sales, including the Cadillac,
Saturn and Saab certified brands. The previous record was 42,642 units in August
2002. The GM Certified Used Vehicle brand alone also posted record numbers,
selling 36,423 vehicles, which is 39 percent higher than last year. "April was a
fantastic month for our certified used vehicle program," Smith said. "As more
dealers get involved in the program, and more consumers become aware of it, we
continue to outpace the growth of the segment."

GM Announces April Production Results; 2003 Q2 GM North America Production
Forecast Unchanged

In April, GM North America produced 461,000 vehicles (179,000 cars and 282,000
trucks) in North America, compared to 535,000 vehicles (235,000 cars and 300,000
trucks) produced in April 2002. (Production totals include joint venture
production of 14,800 vehicles in April 2003 and 10,900 vehicles in April 2002.)

GM's 2003 second-quarter production forecast for North America remains unchanged
at 1.39 million units (548,000 cars and 842,000 trucks). In the second quarter
of 2002, GM North America built 1.553 million vehicles (688,000 cars and 865,000
trucks).

GM also announced current 2003 second-quarter production forecasts for its

up 1,000 vehicles from last month's forecast. GM Asia Pacific built 74,000
vehicles in the second quarter of 2002.

GM Latin America, Africa and the Middle East - The region's second quarter
production forecast is 149,000 units, down 4,000 from last month's guidance. The

and times planned by management.
