This would free the resulting companies to act faster than even the "new" GM. The new companies would be able to create new contracts all around and would be free of the corporate tradition that can strangle a company.
It seems this is the best way to go, the guys who have been put in charge so far just seem to be the same recycled crap continuing its steady downward march thorough market share.

A mass production car manufacturer relies on it's size and economies of scale to make cars cheaper. For example, where did the platform that the Camaro is based on come from? What about that engine? A split up GM would lose these sorts of things. Smaller, OK (they've done a lot of that already) but splitting it up would just make all the pieces fail.
