I'll take a wild stab in the dark at these.

I don't have the specific dates which is why I haven't answered these. But these three answers I'm sure are off a bit. The first GM product built outside of the US was built in Canada, probably a Buick. Ford had produced 25,000,000 vehicles by 1927 so I'm sure GM's was well before 1966, which would put their 50,000,000 decades earlier as well. GM has since topped 100,000,000, I believe.

Yes & Yes.

2. January 11, 1940

3. November 23, 1954

And as an extra tidbit, yes, the 100,000,000th vehicle was April 21, 1967.

As for number one, I found this to be a very odd country that I probably would never have guessed.

4. Close, 68, it was 1973.

5. Again close, it was July 30, 1990.

I know 2 and 3.

2) was in 1940 and was the brand leader of today Chevrolet

3) was in the mid 50's and was once again a Chevrolet.
