That would have to get out of the way before dealers can accept more stock even at reduced prices.

Even when they run out of some, they are not ordering more. Corvettes for example.

I know my dealer said they buy from GM and then sell the cars...no loan or anything, cash for their lot cars.
If this is the case then GM would have to repay the dealers for the cuts...in turn losing more money!

This is the answer to this thread. There is NO liquidation possible. GM has already been paid for the units sitting on dealer's lots.
They are the property of the financing company that loaned the dealer the cash to buy inventory. "Floorplan financing" Usually GMAC in this case, which is a whole other cluster.
When a dealer goes bankrupt, you may be able to get something cheap. But, the units are owned by finance companies.
