ITEM 8.01.  OTHER EVENTS

On February 1, 2005, General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release
announcing January 2005 sales. The release is as follows:

GM Reports 279,653 Deliveries in January, Up 1 Percent
Cadillac and Chevrolet Sales Up, Continuing Strong Sales Pace Set in 2004
Full-Size Pickup Deliveries Rose 6 Percent, Led by Solid Silverado and Sierra
Sales

DETROIT - General Motors dealers sold 279,653 new cars and trucks in January, up
1 percent compared to year-ago deliveries. GM's truck sales (162,267) were up 1
percent, and car sales (117,386) were up 2 percent.

"GM's January sales were soft, but not surprising, given our strong close in
December and some tough weather across most of the country," said John Smith,
group vice president, GM North America Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing.
"Chevrolet and Cadillac enjoyed solid sales in January, with models like the
Chevrolet Cobalt, Aveo and Equinox and the Cadillac STS and Escalade leading the
way. Other key vehicles - like the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Silverado and Saturn
Relay also sold well in January. Industry and GM sales should improve over the
balance of the first quarter."

In trucks, GM's full-size pickup sales rose 6 percent on the strength of
Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra deliveries, both of which were up versus last
year. Additionally, the mid-size pickups Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon had a
combined sales improvement of more than 200 percent and also contributed to the
17.5 percent increase for total GM pickup sales.

In addition to sales gains in full-size pickups, small utility vehicle sales
were up 78.5 percent, paced by the new Chevrolet Equinox. Deliveries of Cadillac
SRX, GM's entry into the medium luxury utility segment, rose 24.5 percent.
Additionally, GM's large luxury SUV sales improved 13 percent, led by sales
increases for Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV and HUMMER H2.

January sales of full-size vans continued on the strong pace that began in 2004.
The combination of Chevrolet and GMC full-size van sales generated a 31 percent
increase over year-ago levels.

GM's car sales in January were up 2 percent, driven by solid sales performances
by launch vehicles. Entry-level car sales were up 9 percent, led by the new
Chevrolet Cobalt and Aveo. Mid-size car deliveries were up 2.5 percent, paced by
year-over-year sales improvements for Chevrolet Malibu and Impala and positive
sales results for new vehicles like the Pontiac G6 and Buick LaCrosse. In the
luxury car segment, Cadillac CTS continued its record sales pace.

Among GM brands, Cadillac, Chevrolet, HUMMER and Saab posted sales gains over
year-ago levels. Saturn's sales were comparable to last year (-0.2 percent).

Cadillac's strong sales results continued in January with a 3 percent
improvement in total sales and a 19 percent increase in truck deliveries.
Escalade, Escalade ESV and SRX all had sales that were significantly higher than
last January. Escalade deliveries rose 23 percent, Escalade ESV sales were up 27
percent, and SRX sales jumped 24.5 percent. CTS had yet another strong month
with record sales that were 19 percent higher than year-ago levels. The CTS is
entering its fourth year in the market and continues to have year-over-year
sales increases. January sales represent the 12th time in the last 13 months
that CTS sales have equaled or improved upon the previous year's deliveries.

Chevrolet's total sales were up 13 percent, with a 33 percent improvement in car
sales. A significant part of the sales lift came from the addition of the Cobalt
and Aveo to the Chevrolet product portfolio. Cobalt had a 32 percent sales
improvement over December. Aveo sales in January were nearly triple its year-ago
level. On the truck side, Silverado sales improved 8 percent, and Colorado had
solid sales results, selling more than 10,000 units for the fourth time in the
last five months.

HUMMER sales were up 5 percent in January. H2 deliveries rose 6 percent,
bolstered by the addition of the H2 SUT, which accounted for 27 percent of H2
sales.




Saab sales improved 8 percent compared to January 2005 on the strength of the
9-3.

Saturn's total deliveries were comparable to last year (-0.2 percent), led by
truck sales, which were up 28 percent. Relay, Saturn's new crossover sport van,
made a significant contribution to this gain, posting sales that were 32 percent
above December's sales. Vue deliveries also were in positive territory, up 3
percent.

Certified Used Vehicles

January sales for all GM certified used vehicle brands, including GM Certified
Used Vehicles, Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned, Used Cars from Saturn and Saab
Certified Pre-Owned, were 40,063 units, down 5 percent from last year.

GM Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-selling manufacturer-certified
used brand, posted sales of 34,331 units in January, down 3 percent from
year-ago levels.

Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles posted sales of 2,893 units in January, up
1 percent. Used Cars from Saturn sold 2,393 units, down 23 percent. Saab
Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold 446 units, down 40 percent.

"Coming off a record fourth quarter and industry record certified sales in 2004,
GM Certified Used Vehicles posted solid sales results in January," Smith said.
"GM Certified continues to lead all manufacturers in the certified category, and
we are very upbeat about the prospects for continued growth in 2005."

release and related comments by General Motors management, our use of the words

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-20) 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.
