Not sure, but I'd guess there will be a release of stock under a new symbol available to everyone, unlike an IPO.

The papers here in Japan are saying the new GM is Government Motors.

The base v6 is a direct injection vvt 3.6L making 305hp at 6400, that seem like the kind of engine you'd like if it was stock in a Honda.

Or Nissan/Infinity. The G37/370Z is making in the vicinity of 330hp naturally aspirated.

@ 6400? What's the redline then, like 7K? Not bad for an American V6.

You'd still get laughed at for owning a base.........Unless you put a blower on it or something.

Maybe, But that 305 hp is about the same as my 99 LS1 Z28 came with stock.

They'd laugh at you for driving a base model until you passed them while spending 10K less than they did.
