General Motors said it has reached a preliminary agreement with FASB, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, that clears the way for the General Motors to be certified as the first debt-free auto maker.

Even though General Motors is near bankruptcy, GM will still be able to claim it's debt-free by reclassifying it's current outstanding debt as "near-equity".
