OTHER EVENTS On March 1, 2006 General Motors Corporation (GM) issued a news release announcing February 2006 sales. The release is as follows: GM Reports 365,375 Deliveries in March 2007 Chevy Tahoe Sales Exceed 10,000 Units in March; Up 41 Percent Compared to February 2007 Cadillac Escalade Sales Rise 68 Percent vs. February; GMC Yukon Sales Up 109 Percent Premium Brands, Cadillac, HUMMER, Saab and Buick, All Post Sales Gains in March GM's Total Sales Down Compared to Strong Year-Ago Results DETROIT - General Motors dealers in the United States sold 365,375 new cars and trucks in March, down 14 percent compared to year-ago levels. Total car sales were down 22 percent, and truck sales were down 9 percent. GM's retail sales in March were down 17 percent compared to strong year-ago deliveries. Fleet sales were down 5 percent. Daily rental sales declined by 8 percent compared to last year. Commercial sales were up 7 percent. "March sales were solidly in line with the targets established in our U.S. turnaround plan," said Mark LaNeve, General Motors North America vice president, Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "We knew that comparisons to a year ago would be difficult because of high daily rental sales and expensive incentives last March. We are pleased that consumers are reacting very favorably to our great new products, with the Chevy Tahoe, Impala and HHR; Buick Lucerne; Cadillac Escalade; and GMC Yukon all having a great month." Consumers in March continued to respond enthusiastically to General Motors' new models. Retail sales of GM launch vehicles were up 30 percent compared to February and accounted for one-third of GM's total deliveries for the month. Success of GM's launch vehicles is a critical component of GM's North America turnaround strategy. LaNeve went on to explain that March retail deliveries of new models were led by robust sales of GM's all-new full-size utilities. The 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe posted 10,126 total deliveries and 9,505 retail deliveries. Total 2007 Tahoe deliveries in March were up 41 percent compared to February. Total Tahoe sales rose 20 percent compared to year-ago levels. The 2007 Escalade posted 2,761 total deliveries and 2,669 retail deliveries. Total 2007 Escalade deliveries were up 68 percent compared to February. Total Escalade sales were up 45 percent compared to year-ago levels. The 2007 GMC Yukon had 3,419 total deliveries and 3,309 retail deliveries in March. March deliveries of the all-new Yukon were more than double its total sales in February (+109 percent). "Given the strong consumer demand for these great new vehicles, we're feeling good about our decision to increase and pull ahead production," LaNeve said. GM's retail selling rate in March was 3.0 million units, a level that is consistent with GM North American Operations' turnaround strategy. The retail selling rate has stabilized in recent months, improving from just above 2.7 million units in the fourth quarter of 2005. "We've made a strategic decision to focus on retail sales and move away from marginally profitable business that in the end is a drag on our sales results and profitability," LaNeve added. "This is how we are providing consumers with the best value in the industry, building strong brands, improving the quality of our market share and turning around our U.S. business." Other new vehicles also recorded solid retail sales results in March. Lucerne, Buick's all-new luxury sedan, posted its best total and retail sales since its introduction in October 2005. March retail deliveries were 73 percent greater than year-ago LeSabre retail sales. Through the first quarter, Lucerne's retail sales account for more than 40 percent of Buick's total retail deliveries. Consumers and dealers continue to respond very favorably to the new Chevrolet Impala. Retail sales in March were 16 percent greater than February and the sales mix has been very favorable, with strong demand for the SS version. Additionally, dealer orders for Impala have exceeded expectations. HHR also posted solid sales results in March, with retail sales up 4 percent compared to February, despite lean dealer inventories. HUMMER set another sales record in March, with total sales up 176 percent. Retail deliveries rose 165 percent. HUMMER's March results were driven by continued strong H3 sales. H3 has widened its sales lead in the entry luxury utility segment, capturing over 70 percent of the segment for the calendar year-to-date. Saab also improved its retail sales performance in March, with retail deliveries up 15 percent. This increase was led by 9-3 sales and the addition of the 9-7X to Saab's portfolio. The redesigned Saturn Vue lengthened its streak of year-over-year sales improvements, posting a sales increase for the tenth consecutive month. Certified Used Vehicles March sales for GM Certified Used Vehicles, Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles and HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, were 47,170 units, up 15.5 percent from last March. Certified sales from Used Cars from Saturn were unavailable at press time. Total year-to-date certified GM sales, excluding March sales of Used Cars from Saturn, are 124,232 units, comparable to the same period last year. GM Certified Used Vehicles, the industry's top-selling manufacturer-certified used brand, posted 42,536 sales, up 6 percent from last March and up 20 percent from February 2006. Year-to-date sales for GM Certified Used Vehicles are 112,490 units, down 1 percent from the same period in 2005. Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles posted 3,874 sales in March, up 10 percent from last year. Saab Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles sold 760 units, up 6 percent. In its third month of operation, HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned sold 83 units. "March was an outstanding month for GM certified sales, posting a strong increase over a very solid March performance last year," LaNeve said. "The industry's top-selling certified brand, GM Certified Used Vehicles, continues to set the pace for the certified segment, with sales of 42,536 units in March, the segment's third best monthly sales performance ever." GM North America Reports March and 2006 First-Quarter Production; 2006 Second-Quarter Production Forecast Remains Unchanged In March, GM North America produced 460,000 vehicles (182,000 cars and 278,000 trucks).

In this press 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-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. # # # Detroit -- General Motors dealers in the United States today reported the following vehicle sales: -
