I would also hesitate because of GM's status. A CH11 filing could quickly precipitate to a CH7 if consumer concerns continue to drop sales. There is concern over the viability of the dealer network and even in a CH11 some of the dealers will lose their franchises without buyout payments.

Many do not think GM would be viable even in a successful CH11. I agree the Corvette brand would continue but it could go through a few years of "neglect" and potential disruption in warranty programs. Just a thought.
