How does it plan on doing this without getting their assholes ripped apart by lawsuits from laws that protect dealerships from an event like this? They had a hard enough time dumping just Oldsmobile. Their efforts to sell off Hummer met with a thud. I can't imagine how they're going to drop a larger volume brand like Pontiac, let alone the addition of Saturn, Saab, and Hummer without a huge amount of litigation and legal expense. They might be able to find a buyer for Saab, and possibly even Saturn if they get lucky, but Hummer has been a massive albatross since the SUV market tanked, and Pontiac may be a tough sell in general.

It would be the right direction to go in, and contraction would help to streamline their product line immensely, but the laws in place protecting dealerships are going to be a huge hurdle.
