	Note 1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Acquisition of Ally Financial International Operations
	We acquired Ally Financial Inc.'s ("Ally Financial") auto finance and financial services operations in Germany, the United Kingdom (the "U.K."), Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Greece, Spain, Chile, Colombia and Mexico on April 1, 2013. We acquired Ally Financial's auto finance and financial services operations in France and Portugal on June 1, 2013, and we acquired Ally Financial's auto finance and financial services operations in Brazil on October 1, 2013. Additionally, we have agreed to acquire Ally Financial's non-controlling 40% equity interest in GMAC-SAIC Automotive Finance Company Limited ("GMAC-SAIC"), a joint venture, which conducts auto finance operations in China. This agreement is subject to certain regulatory and other approvals and has become subject to a right of termination by either party in its sole discretion; however, we do not expect the agreement to be terminated. We consider it probable that our acquisition of Ally Financial's interest in GMAC-SAIC will occur in late 2014 or as soon as practicable thereafter. The results of operations of the acquired entities since the applicable acquisition dates are included in our financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
	Segment Information
	We evaluate our business in two operating segments: North America ("the North America Segment") and international ("the International Segment"). The North America Segment includes our operations in the U.S. and Canada. The International Segment includes our operations in all other countries. For additional financial information regarding our business segments, see Note 12 - "Segment Reporting."
	Basis of Presentation
	The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, including certain special-purpose financing entities utilized in secured financing transactions, which are considered variable interest entities ("VIEs"). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
	The interim period consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are condensed and do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States of America. These interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 6, 2014 ("Form 10-K"). Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to our current year presentation.
	The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the amount of revenue and costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences may be material. These estimates include, among other things, the determination of the allowance for loan losses on finance receivables, estimated recovery value on leased vehicles, goodwill, income taxes and the expected cash flows on the pre-acquisition consumer finance receivables.
	Net Presentation of Cash Flows Related to Commercial Finance Receivables
	Our commercial finance receivables are primarily comprised of floorplan financing to dealers.  The floorplan financing loans are repayable by the dealer within two to ten days after the dealer sells the vehicle subject to the financing. In our experience, these loans are typically repaid in less than 90 days of when the credit is extended. Furthermore, we have the unilateral ability to call the loans and receive payment within 30 days of when the credit is extended. Therefore, the presentation of the cash flows related to commercial finance receivables are reflected on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as "Net funding (collections) of commercial finance receivables."
	We have revolving debt agreements to finance our commercial lending activities. The revolving period of these agreements ranges from 12 to 18 months; however, the terms of these financing agreements require that a borrowing base of eligible floorplan receivables, within certain concentration limits, must be maintained in sufficient amounts to support advances.  When a dealer repays a floorplan receivable to us, the amount advanced against such receivables must be repaid by us or else the equivalent amount in new receivables must be added to the borrowing base. Despite the revolving term exceeding 90 days, the actual term for repayment of advances under these agreements is when we receive repayment from the dealers, which is typically within 90 days of when the credit is extended. Therefore, for 2014, the cash flows related to these revolving debt agreements are reflected on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as “Net increase in debt (original maturities less than three months).”
	Related Party Transactions
	We are the wholly-owned captive finance subsidiary of our parent, General Motors Company ("GM"). We offer loan and lease finance products through GM-franchised dealers to consumers purchasing new and certain used vehicles manufactured by GM and make commercial loans directly to GM-franchised dealers. Under subvention programs, GM makes cash payments to us for offering incentivized rates and structures on consumer loan and lease finance products. In addition, GM makes payments to us to cover certain interest payments on commercial loans. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had related party receivables from GM in the amount of $185 million and $129 million under these programs.
	In addition, we had $90 million and $62 million due at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 in loans outstanding to dealers that are consolidated by GM, in connection with our commercial lending program. Our international operations also provide financing to certain GM subsidiaries through factoring and other wholesale financing arrangements. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $228 million and $588 million were outstanding under such arrangements, and are included in commercial finance receivables. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we also had $432 million and $368 million of related party payables due to GM, primarily for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded. These payables typically settle within 30 days.
	We have a tax sharing agreement with GM for our US operations, and we are obligated to pay GM for our share of the consolidated U.S. federal and certain state tax liabilities for taxable income recognized by us in any period beginning on or after October 1, 2010. Payments for the tax years 2010 through 2014 are deferred for four years from their original due date, and the total deferral amount is to not exceed $1.0 billion. The tax sharing agreement may be modified at any time by GM in its sole discretion. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we have recorded related party taxes payable to GM in the amount of $891 million and $643 million.
	We have a $600 million credit facility with GM ("GM Related Party Credit Facility"). There were no advances outstanding under the GM Related Party Credit Facility at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
	Recently Adopted Accounting Principles
	On January 1, 2014 we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” which was issued to eliminate diversity in practice. This ASU requires that companies net their unrecognized tax benefits against all same-jurisdiction net operating losses or tax credit carryforwards that would be used to settle the position with a tax authority. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
	Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
	In May 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue Recognition - Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09) that requires companies to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control rather than when companies have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of a good or service. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016 and interim periods therein and requires expanded disclosures. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

	Consumer Finance Receivables
	Our consumer finance receivables are reported in two portfolios: pre-acquisition and post-acquisition. The pre-acquisition consumer finance receivables portfolio consists of (i) finance receivables originated in North America prior to our merger with GM, all of which were considered to have had deterioration in credit quality, and (ii) finance receivables that were considered to have had deterioration in credit quality that were acquired with the international operations. The pre-acquisition consumer portfolio will decrease over time with the amortization of the acquired receivables.
	The post-acquisition consumer finance receivables portfolio consists of (i) finance receivables originated in North America since our merger with GM, (ii) finance receivables originated in the international operations since the applicable acquisition dates and (iii) finance receivables that were considered to have had no deterioration in credit quality that were acquired with the international operations. The post-acquisition consumer portfolio will grow over time as we originate new receivables.
	Pre-acquisition Consumer Finance Receivables
	Following is a summary of activity in our pre-acquisition consumer finance receivables portfolio (in millions):

	Balance at end of period		$	510			$	245			$	755			$	1,279			$	1,272			$	2,551
	We review our pre-acquisition portfolio for differences between contractual cash flows and the cash flows expected to be collected to determine if the difference is attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, as a result of improvements in the credit performance of the North America pre-acquisition portfolio, expected cash flows increased by $33 million and $54 million. We transferred the amount of excess cash flows from the non-accretable difference to accretable yield. This excess will be amortized through finance charge income over the remaining life of the portfolio. As a result of the decrease in the pre-acquisition portfolio through amortization, the amount of excess cash flows transferred to accretable yield and subsequently amortized through finance charge income has decreased.
	A summary of the activity in the accretable yield on the pre-acquisition consumer finance receivables portfolios is as follows (in millions):

	Post-acquisition Consumer Finance Receivables
	We generally purchase consumer finance contracts from auto dealers without recourse, and accordingly, the dealer has no liability to us if the consumer defaults on the contract. Depending upon the contract structure and consumer credit attributes, we may pay dealers a participation fee or we may charge dealers a non-refundable acquisition fee when purchasing individual finance contracts. We also have subvention programs with GM and other new vehicle manufacturers, under which the manufacturers provide us cash payments in order for us to offer lower interest rates on consumer finance contracts we purchase. We record the amortization of participation fees and subvention and accretion of acquisition fees to finance charge income using the effective interest method.

Consumer Credit Quality
We use proprietary scoring systems in the underwriting process that measure the credit quality of the receivables using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores (e.g. FICO score), and contract characteristics. In addition to our proprietary scoring system, we consider other individual consumer factors, such as employment history, financial stability, and capacity to pay. At the time of loan origination, substantially all of our international consumers have the equivalent of prime credit scores. In the North America Segment, however, our consumer finance receivables are predominantly sub-prime. A summary of the credit risk profile by FICO score band, determined at origination, of the consumer finance receivables in the North America Segment is as follows (dollars in millions):
		June 30, 2014							December 31, 2013
		Amount				Percent			Amount				Percent
FICO Score less than 540		$	3,723			31.1	%		$	3,511			30.6	%
FICO Score 540 to 599		5,707				47.6			5,435				47.3

FICO Score 660 and greater		255				2.2			270				2.3
Balance at end of period(a)		$	11,978			100	%		$	11,493			100	%
_________________
(a)	Balance at the end of the period is the sum of pre-acquisition consumer finance receivables-outstanding balance and post-acquisition consumer finance receivables, net of fees for North America Segment.
In addition we review the credit quality of all of our consumer finance receivables based on consumer payment activity. A consumer account is considered delinquent if a substantial portion of a scheduled payment has not been received by the date such payment was contractually due. Consumer finance receivables are collateralized by vehicle titles and, subject to local laws, we generally have the right to repossess the vehicle in the event the consumer defaults on the payment terms of the contract. The following is a summary of the contractual amounts of consumer finance receivables, which is not significantly different than recorded investment, that are (i) more than 30 days delinquent, not yet in repossession, and (ii) in repossession, but not yet charged off (dollars in millions):
		June 30,

The accrual of finance charge income has been suspended on $626 million and $642 million of consumer finance receivables (based on contractual amount due) as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
Impaired Consumer Finance Receivables - TDRs
Consumer finance receivables in the post-acquisition portfolio that become classified as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") are separately assessed for impairment. A specific allowance is estimated based on the present value of the expected future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. The financial effects of the accounts that become classified as TDRs result in an impairment charge recorded as part of the provision for loan losses. Accounts that become classified as TDRs because of a payment deferral still accrue interest at the contractual rate and an additional fee is collected (where permitted) at each time of deferral and recorded as a reduction of accrued interest. No interest or fees are forgiven on a payment deferral to a customer and therefore, there are no additional financial effects of deferred loans becoming classified as TDRs. Accounts in Chapter 13 bankruptcy would have already been placed on non-accrual; therefore, there are no additional financial effects from these loans becoming classified as TDRs. As of June 30, 2014, the outstanding balance of consumer finance receivables in the International Segment determined to be TDRs was insignificant; therefore, the following information is presented with regard to the TDRs in the North America Segment only.
The outstanding recorded investment for consumer finance receivables that are considered to be TDRs and the related allowance is presented below (in millions):
		June 30, 2014				December 31, 2013
Outstanding recorded investment		$	992			$	767
Less: allowance for loan losses		(123		)		(103		)
Outstanding recorded investment, net of allowance		$	869			$	664
Unpaid principal balance		$	1,009			$	779
Finance charge income from loans classified as TDRs is accounted for in the same manner as other accruing loans. Cash collections on these loans are allocated according to the same payment hierarchy methodology applied to loans that are not classified as TDRs. Additional information about loans classified as TDRs is presented below (in millions):

A redefault is when an account meets the requirements for evaluation under our charge-off policy (See Note 1 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our Form 10-K for additional information). The unpaid principal balance, net of recoveries, of loans that redefaulted during the reporting period and were within 12 months or less of being modified as a TDR were $11 million and $5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and $20 million and $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Commercial Credit Quality
We extend wholesale credit to dealers primarily in the form of approved lines of credit to purchase new vehicles as well as used vehicles. Each commercial lending request is evaluated, taking into consideration the borrower's financial condition and the underlying collateral for the loan.
We use proprietary models to assign each dealer a risk rating. These models use historical performance data to identify key factors about a dealer that we consider significant in predicting a dealer's ability to meet its financial obligations. We also consider numerous other financial and qualitative factors including capitalization and leverage, liquidity and cash flow, profitability and credit history.
We regularly review our models to confirm the continued business significance and statistical predictability of the factors and update the models to incorporate new factors or other information that improves statistical predictability. In addition, we verify the existence of the assets collateralizing the receivables by physical audits of vehicle inventories, which are performed with increased frequency for higher risk (i.e., Groups III, IV, V and VI) dealers. We perform a credit review of each dealer at least annually and adjust the dealer's risk rating, if necessary.
Performance of our commercial finance receivables is evaluated based on our internal dealer risk rating analysis, as payment for wholesale receivables is generally not required until the dealer has sold the vehicle inventory. Wholesale and dealer loan receivables with the same dealer customer share the same risk rating.
A summary of the credit risk profile by dealer grouping of the commercial finance receivables is as follows (in millions):
				June 30, 2014				December 31, 2013
Group I	-	Dealers with superior financial metrics		$	754			$	598
Group II	-	Dealers with strong financial metrics		1,633				1,588
Group III -	-	Dealers with fair financial metrics		2,365				2,174
Group IV -	-	Dealers with weak financial metrics		1,539				1,622
Group V	-	Dealers warranting special mention due to potential weaknesses		615				488
Group VI -	-	Dealers with loans classified as substandard, doubtful or impaired		208				230
Balance at end of period				$	7,114			$	6,700
The credit lines for Group VI dealers are suspended and no further funding is extended to these dealers.
At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 99.8% of our commercial finance receivables were current with respect to payment status.
Impaired Commercial Finance Receivables
We consider a loan impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The amount of impairment is based on expected proceeds, including the estimated amount of future cash flows and/or the fair value of underlying collateral, compared to the recorded investment of the loan. A specific allowance for losses is established in the amount of any measured impairment.
Commercial finance receivables classified as TDRs are assessed for impairment and included in our allowance for credit losses based on the present value of the expected future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. For receivables where foreclosure is probable, the fair value of the collateral is used to estimate the specific impairment. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were no outstanding commercial finance receivables classified as TDRs.

	Secured Debt
	Secured debt consists of revolving credit facilities and securitization notes payable. Most of the secured debt was issued by variable interest entities, as further discussed in Note 6 - "Variable Interest Entities." This debt is repayable only from proceeds related to the underlying pledged finance receivables and lease related assets.
	During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we entered into $445 million in new revolving credit facilities and issued $5.0 billion in securitization notes payable.
	We are required to hold funds in restricted cash accounts to provide additional collateral for borrowings under certain of our secured credit facilities. Additionally, certain of our secured credit facilities contain various covenants requiring minimum financial ratios, asset quality and portfolio performance ratios (portfolio net loss and delinquency ratios and pool level cumulative net loss ratios) as well as limits on deferment levels. Failure to meet any of these covenants could result in an event of default under these agreements. If an event of default occurs under these agreements, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under these agreements to be immediately due and payable, enforce their interests against collateral pledged under these agreements, restrict our ability to obtain additional borrowings under these agreements and/or remove us as servicer. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenants related to our credit facilities.
	Unsecured Debt
	Unsecured debt consists primarily of senior notes we have issued in the North America Segment, as well as credit facilities and other unsecured debt in the International Segment.
	At June 30, 2014, we had $4.0 billion of senior notes issued by our top-tier holding company that mature from 2016 through 2023 and have interest rates that range from 2.75% to 6.75%. All of these senior notes may be redeemed, at our option, in whole or in part, at any time before maturity at the redemption prices set forth in the indentures that govern the senior notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to the redemption date. In addition, if a change of control occurs, as that term is defined in the indentures that govern the senior notes, prior to us being rated "investment grade" by at least two of three listed rating agencies, the holders of these senior notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require us to repurchase their senior notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of senior notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, as of the date of repurchase. These senior notes are guaranteed solely by AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. ("AFSI"); none of our other subsidiaries are guarantors of these senior notes. See Note 15 - "Guarantor Consolidating Financial Statements" for further discussion.
	On July 10, 2014, our top-tier holding company issued an additional $1.5 billion in senior notes, of which $700 million are due July 2017 and $800 million are due July 2019. Interest rates on the respective tranches are 2.63% and 3.50%, payable semiannually. Terms are substantially the same as those of senior notes previously issued. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes.
	The indentures that govern the senior notes issued by our top-tier holding company provide for customary events of default, including nonpayment, failure to comply with covenants or other agreements in the indentures, if any subsidiary guarantee shall cease to be in full force and effect or any guarantor shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its subsidiary guarantee, and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. If any event of default occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of senior notes, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding senior notes of such series may declare all of the senior notes of such series to be due and payable immediately. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenants related to our senior notes.
	In May 2014 our Canadian subsidiary issued C$400 million of 3.25% senior notes through a private placement in Canada. The notes are due in May 2017 with interest payable semiannually. Similar to the senior notes issued by our top-tier holding company, these notes are guaranteed by AFSI. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes.
	The International Segment issues unsecured debt through credit facilities with banks and other non-bank funding instruments. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we entered into $171 million of new unsecured committed credit facilities.

		June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
	Restricted cash	$	1,741	$	1,523
	VIE assets	$	27,173	$	23,584
	VIE liabilities	$	22,371	$	19,448
	The assets of the VIEs and the restricted cash we hold serve as the sole source of repayment for the debt issued by these entities. Investors in the notes issued by the VIEs do not have recourse to us or our other assets, with the exception of customary representation and warranty repurchase provisions and indemnities we provide as the servicer. We are not required and do not currently intend to provide additional financial support to these VIEs. While these subsidiaries are included in our consolidated financial statements, these subsidiaries are separate legal entities and their assets are legally owned by them and not available to our creditors.
	In addition, we entered into interest rate swaps and caps with certain special-purpose entities ("SPEs") that issue variable rate debt against fixed rate securitized assets. Under the terms of these swaps, the SPEs are obligated to pay us a fixed rate of interest on certain payment dates in exchange for receiving a floating rate of interest on notional amounts equal to the outstanding balance of the secured debt. This arrangement enables the SPEs to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in issuing variable rate debt that is secured by fixed rate securitized assets, as required to maintain ratings on such securitizations. See Note 7 - "Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities" for further discussion.
	Other VIEs
	We consolidate certain operating entities that provide auto finance and financial services, which we do not control through a majority voting interest. We manage these entities and maintain a controlling financial interest in them and are exposed to the risks of ownership through contractual arrangements. The majority voting interests in these entities are indirectly wholly-owned by our parent, GM. Prior to December 2013, the voting interests in these entities were indirectly wholly-owned by us. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, total assets of these entities were $4.0 billion and $3.9 billion, which were comprised primarily of cash and cash equivalents and finance receivables; and total liabilities were $3.2 billion and $3.0 billion, which were comprised primarily of debt, accounts payable (primarily trade) and accrued liabilities. In the six months ended June 30, 2014 total revenue recorded by these entities was $118 million and net income was $21 million. In the three months ended June 30, 2014 total revenue recorded by these entities was $60 million and net income was $11 million. These amounts are stated prior to intercompany eliminations and include amounts related to securitization and credit facilities held by consolidated VIEs. Liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these entities generally do not represent claims against us or our other subsidiaries and assets recognized generally are for the benefit of these entities operations and cannot be used to satisfy our or our subsidiaries obligations.
	Transfers of finance receivables to non-VIEs
	Under certain debt agreements, we transfer finance receivables to third-party banks, which are not considered VIEs.  These transfers do not meet the criteria to be considered sales; therefore, the finance receivables and the related debt are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements.  Any collections received on the transferred receivables are available only for the repayment of the related debt.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $2.9 billion and $2.8 billion in finance receivables had been transferred in secured funding arrangements to third-party banks, to which $2.7 billion and $2.7 billion in secured debt was outstanding.

	We provided loans denominated in foreign currencies (euro, British pound and Swedish krona) to certain of our international entities for the equivalent of $1.7 billion. We purchase foreign currency swaps to hedge against any valuation change in the loans due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

	Guarantees of Indebtedness
	The payments of principal and interest on senior notes issued by our top-tier holding company are guaranteed by AFSI. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the par value of these senior notes was $4.0 billion . See Note 15 - "Guarantor Consolidating Financial Statements" for further discussion.
	Legal Proceedings
	As a consumer finance company, we are subject to various consumer claims and litigation seeking damages and statutory penalties, based upon, among other things, usury, disclosure inaccuracies, wrongful repossession, violations of bankruptcy stay provisions, certificate of title disputes, fraud, breach of contract and discriminatory treatment of credit applicants. Some litigation against us could take the form of class action complaints by consumers and certain legal actions include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. We establish reserves for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the payments can be reasonably estimated. Given the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation and regulatory matters, it is generally very difficult to predict what the eventual outcome will be, and when the matter will be resolved. The actual costs of resolving legal claims may be higher or lower than any amounts reserved for the claims.
	Other Administrative Tax Matters
	We accrue non-income tax liabilities for contingencies when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are sustained in excess of accruals, they will be charged against income at that time.
	In evaluating indirect tax matters, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time. It is reasonably possible that some of the matters for which accruals have not been established could be decided unfavorably to us and could require us to make expenditures for which we estimate the aggregate risk to be a range of up to $98 million.

	Income Taxes
	For interim income tax reporting we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year-to-date ordinary income. Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year-to-date loss for which a tax benefit cannot be realized are excluded from the annualized effective tax rate. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur.
	Our effective income tax rate was 34.0% and 34.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Our effective income tax rate was 32.7% and 34.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

Fair Value Of Financial Instruments [Abstract]	'
Fair Value Of Financial Instruments	'
	Fair Values of Financial Instruments
	Fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques in cases where quoted market prices are not available. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and the estimated timing and amount of future cash flows. Therefore, the estimates of fair value may differ substantially from amounts that ultimately may be realized or paid at settlement or maturity of the financial instruments and those differences may be material. Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments exclude certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of our company.
	Estimated fair values, carrying values and various methods and assumptions used in valuing our financial instruments are set forth below (in millions):

	_________________
	(a)	Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash bear interest at market rates; therefore, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	(b)	The fair value of the consumer finance receivables in the North America Segment is estimated based upon forecasted cash flows on the receivables discounted using a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital. The fair value of the consumer finance receivables in the International Segment is estimated based on forecasted cash flows on the receivables discounted using current origination rates for similar type loans. Commercial finance receivables generally have variable interest rates and maturities of one year or less. Therefore, the carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	(c)	The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are estimated by discounting future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
	(d)	The fair values of the interest rate cap agreements and foreign currency swap agreements are based on quoted market prices.
	(e)	Secured debt in the North America Segment is comprised of revolving credit facilities, publicly-issued secured debt, and privately-issued secured debt. For revolving credit facilities with variable rates of interest and terms of one year or less, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of the publicly and privately issued secured term debt is based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, the market value is estimated using quoted market prices of similar securities.
	(f)	The level 2 secured debt in the International Segment has terms of one year or less, or has been priced within the last six months; therefore, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	(g)	The fair value of level 3 secured debt and unsecured debt in the International Segment is estimated by discounting future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
	(h)	The fair value of unsecured debt in the North America Segment is based on quoted market prices in thinly-traded markets.
	(i)	The level 2 unsecured debt in the International Segment has terms of one year or less; therefore, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	The fair value of our consumer finance receivables is based on observable and unobservable inputs within a discounted cash flow model. Those unobservable inputs reflect assumptions regarding expected prepayments, deferrals, delinquencies, recoveries and charge-offs of the loans within the portfolio. The cash flow model produces an estimated amortization schedule of the finance receivables which is the basis for the calculation of the series of cash flows that derive the fair value of the portfolio. For the North America Segment, the series of cash flows is calculated and discounted using a weighted average cost of capital using unobservable debt and equity percentages, an unobservable cost of equity and an observable cost of debt based on companies with a similar credit rating and maturity profile. For the International Segment, the series of cash flows is calculated and discounted using current interest rates. Macroeconomic factors could affect the credit performance of our portfolio and therefore could potentially impact the assumptions used in our cash flow model.

	Segment Reporting
	We offer substantially similar products and services throughout many different regions, subject to local regulations and market conditions. We evaluate our business in two operating segments: the North America Segment (consisting of operations in the U.S. and Canada) and the International Segment (consisting of operations in all other countries). Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating results and performance of our business based on these operating segments. The management of each segment is responsible for executing our strategies.
	For segment reporting purposes only, interest expense related to the senior notes has been allocated based on targeted leverage for each segment. Interest expense in excess of the targeted overall leverage is reflected in the "Corporate" column below. In addition, the interest income on $1.7 billion in intercompany loans provided to the international operations is presented in the "Corporate" column below.
	All inter-segment balances and transactions have been eliminated. Key operating data for our operating segments were as follows (in millions):

	Regulatory Capital
	The International Segment includes the operations of certain stand-alone entities that operate in local markets as either banks or regulated finance companies that are subject to regulatory restrictions. These regulatory restrictions, among other things, require that these entities meet certain minimum capital requirements and may restrict dividend distributions and ownership of certain assets. We were in compliance with all regulatory requirements at June 30, 2014. Total assets of our regulated international banks and finance companies were approximately $12.5 billion and $12.1 billion at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

	Guarantor Consolidating Financial Statements
	The payment of principal and interest on senior notes issued by our top-tier holding company is currently guaranteed solely by AFSI (the "Guarantor") and none of our other subsidiaries (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The separate financial statements of the Guarantor are not included herein because the Guarantor is a 100% owned consolidated subsidiary and is unconditionally liable for the obligations represented by the senior notes. A subsidiary guarantee can be released under customary circumstances, including (i) the subsidiary is sold or sells all of its assets; (ii) the subsidiary is declared "unrestricted" for covenant purposes; (iii) the subsidiary's guarantee of other indebtedness is terminated or released; (iv) the requirements for legal defeasance or covenant defeasance or to discharge the indenture have been satisfied; (v) the rating on the parent's debt securities is changed to investment grade; or (vi) the parent's debt securities are converted or exchanged into equity securities.
	The consolidating financial statements present consolidating financial data for (i) General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (on a parent only basis), (ii) the Guarantor, (iii) the combined Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, (iv) an elimination column for adjustments to arrive at the information for the parent company and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and (v) the parent company and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
	Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the parent company using the equity method for purposes of this presentation. Results of operations of subsidiaries are therefore reflected in the parent company's investment accounts and earnings. The principal elimination entries set forth below eliminate investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Acquisition of Ally Financial International Operations
	We acquired Ally Financial Inc.'s ("Ally Financial") auto finance and financial services operations in Germany, the United Kingdom (the "U.K."), Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Greece, Spain, Chile, Colombia and Mexico on April 1, 2013. We acquired Ally Financial's auto finance and financial services operations in France and Portugal on June 1, 2013, and we acquired Ally Financial's auto finance and financial services operations in Brazil on October 1, 2013. Additionally, we have agreed to acquire Ally Financial's non-controlling 40% equity interest in GMAC-SAIC Automotive Finance Company Limited ("GMAC-SAIC"), a joint venture, which conducts auto finance operations in China. This agreement is subject to certain regulatory and other approvals and has become subject to a right of termination by either party in its sole discretion; however, we do not expect the agreement to be terminated. We consider it probable that our acquisition of Ally Financial's interest in GMAC-SAIC will occur in late 2014 or as soon as practicable thereafter. The results of operations of the acquired entities since the applicable acquisition dates are included in our financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Segment Information
	We evaluate our business in two operating segments: North America ("the North America Segment") and international ("the International Segment"). The North America Segment includes our operations in the U.S. and Canada. The International Segment includes our operations in all other countries. For additional financial information regarding our business segments, see Note 12 - "Segment Reporting."
Business Presentation, Policy	'
	Basis of Presentation
	The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, including certain special-purpose financing entities utilized in secured financing transactions, which are considered variable interest entities ("VIEs"). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
	The interim period consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are condensed and do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States of America. These interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 6, 2014 ("Form 10-K"). Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to our current year presentation.
	The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the amount of revenue and costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences may be material. These estimates include, among other things, the determination of the allowance for loan losses on finance receivables, estimated recovery value on leased vehicles, goodwill, income taxes and the expected cash flows on the pre-acquisition consumer finance receivables.
Related Party Transaction [Policy Text Block]	'
	Related Party Transactions
	We are the wholly-owned captive finance subsidiary of our parent, General Motors Company ("GM"). We offer loan and lease finance products through GM-franchised dealers to consumers purchasing new and certain used vehicles manufactured by GM and make commercial loans directly to GM-franchised dealers. Under subvention programs, GM makes cash payments to us for offering incentivized rates and structures on consumer loan and lease finance products. In addition, GM makes payments to us to cover certain interest payments on commercial loans. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had related party receivables from GM in the amount of $185 million and $129 million under these programs.
	In addition, we had $90 million and $62 million due at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 in loans outstanding to dealers that are consolidated by GM, in connection with our commercial lending program. Our international operations also provide financing to certain GM subsidiaries through factoring and other wholesale financing arrangements. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $228 million and $588 million were outstanding under such arrangements, and are included in commercial finance receivables. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we also had $432 million and $368 million of related party payables due to GM, primarily for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded. These payables typically settle within 30 days.
	We have a tax sharing agreement with GM for our US operations, and we are obligated to pay GM for our share of the consolidated U.S. federal and certain state tax liabilities for taxable income recognized by us in any period beginning on or after October 1, 2010. Payments for the tax years 2010 through 2014 are deferred for four years from their original due date, and the total deferral amount is to not exceed $1.0 billion. The tax sharing agreement may be modified at any time by GM in its sole discretion. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we have recorded related party taxes payable to GM in the amount of $891 million and $643 million.
	We have a $600 million credit facility with GM ("GM Related Party Credit Facility"). There were no advances outstanding under the GM Related Party Credit Facility at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Recently Adopted Accounting Principles
	On January 1, 2014 we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” which was issued to eliminate diversity in practice. This ASU requires that companies net their unrecognized tax benefits against all same-jurisdiction net operating losses or tax credit carryforwards that would be used to settle the position with a tax authority. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
	Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
	In May 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue Recognition - Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09) that requires companies to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control rather than when companies have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of a good or service. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016 and interim periods therein and requires expanded disclosures. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

	_________________
	(a)	Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash bear interest at market rates; therefore, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	(b)	The fair value of the consumer finance receivables in the North America Segment is estimated based upon forecasted cash flows on the receivables discounted using a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital. The fair value of the consumer finance receivables in the International Segment is estimated based on forecasted cash flows on the receivables discounted using current origination rates for similar type loans. Commercial finance receivables generally have variable interest rates and maturities of one year or less. Therefore, the carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	(c)	The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are estimated by discounting future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
	(d)	The fair values of the interest rate cap agreements and foreign currency swap agreements are based on quoted market prices.
	(e)	Secured debt in the North America Segment is comprised of revolving credit facilities, publicly-issued secured debt, and privately-issued secured debt. For revolving credit facilities with variable rates of interest and terms of one year or less, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of the publicly and privately issued secured term debt is based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, the market value is estimated using quoted market prices of similar securities.
	(f)	The level 2 secured debt in the International Segment has terms of one year or less, or has been priced within the last six months; therefore, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	(g)	The fair value of level 3 secured debt and unsecured debt in the International Segment is estimated by discounting future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
	(h)	The fair value of unsecured debt in the North America Segment is based on quoted market prices in thinly-traded markets.
	(i)	The level 2 unsecured debt in the International Segment has terms of one year or less; therefore, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

[1]	ash and cash equivalents and restricted cash bear interest at market rates; therefore, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
[2]	The fair value of the consumer finance receivables in the North America Segment is estimated based upon forecasted cash flows on the receivables discounted using a pre-tax weighted average cost of capital. The fair value of the consumer finance receivables in the International Segment is estimated based on forecasted cash flows on the receivables discounted using current origination rates for similar type loans. Commercial finance receivables generally have variable interest rates and maturities of one year or less. Therefore, the carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
[3]	The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are estimated by discounting future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
[4]	The fair values of the interest rate cap agreements and foreign currency swap agreements are based on quoted market prices.
[5]	Secured debt in the North America Segment is comprised of revolving credit facilities, publicly-issued secured debt, and privately-issued secured debt. For revolving credit facilities with variable rates of interest and terms of one year or less, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of the publicly and privately issued secured term debt is based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, the market value is estimated using quoted market prices of similar securities.
[6]	The fair value of unsecured debt in the North America Segment is based on quoted market prices in thinly-traded markets.
[7]	The level 2 secured debt in the International Segment has terms of one year or less, or has been priced within the last six months; therefore, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
[8]	The fair value of level 3 secured debt and unsecured debt in the International Segment is estimated by discounting future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
[9]	The level 2 unsecured debt in the International Segment has terms of one year or less; therefore, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
