    Ford was the only one of the big American car companies who wasnt bailed out by the g'ment.

    Not expecting any great innovations out of GM or Chrysler with Obama as their boss.

    Maybe 1990-1995 they did:
    Chevrolet Corvette (fourth generation-C4) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    But I do believe the current 6.2L Supercharged V8 (otherwise known as LS9) used in the current ZR1 Corvette is GM developed.
