GM's getting desperate...having a garage sale!

Check out this list of cars GM is getting ready to auction off at the next Barrett-Jackson auction in January (Courtesy of Jalopnik):
Cash-starved GM's set to auction many recent and slightly less-important vehicles from its Heritage museum Collection at the upcoming Barrett-Jackson auction. Surprisingly full yet not-quite finished list below.

Basically, GM's auctioning off anything they can semi-easily buy another one of when (hopefully) times get better. Smarter move than auctioning off the rest of the more-priceless classics they've got in their Warren-based Heritage Center, like the dozens of completely irreplaceable and one-off concept cars. Of course, they could probably get more for those. Maybe they're next if times get even more tight.

While the list appears heavily stacked towards the 1990s and 2000s, that doesn’t mean there aren’t older vehicles on it. Check out the 1904 Oldsmobile Touring Runabout for an example. Us? We’re hoping the Gawker Non-Denominational Winter Holiday Bonus is big enough for one of the 1989 Corvette ZR-1s.

Still, we're hearing the final list of vehicles for sale is not-yet-complete. Maybe some of the more precious will go live to buy.

The Barrett-Jackson auction runs from January 13-19, 2009 in Scottsdale, Arizona. Break out the piggy banks.

There are some nice cars on that list. The only newer cars I would consider are the Super V and GNX.

Are you kidding? who wouldn't want the popemobile? (11th on the list)




Actually there are a bunch of these I would really like to have. Presidential limo Corvettes 1967 GTO lot's of cool stuff to be had. If they are selling on the cheap, I'll take a few.

Anybody have a pic of the 2002 Rendezvous Tour Edition SC? Googling it brings me back to the Jalopnik article.

Pictures don't seem to be available for much of GM stuff as of yet.

I'm disappointed that GM's stuff makes up nearly a quarter of the field. And except for a few examples, most of it is based on the crap that contributed to the situation they're in today.
