                                      duty trucks and vans (the "Initial Financed Vehicles"), certain

                                      and warranties.  The Initial Receivables will be purchased by the
                                      Seller from AmeriCredit and CP Funding pursuant to a purchase
                                      agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") between the Seller, CP Funding
                                      and AmeriCredit on or prior to the date of issuance of the Notes.
                                      Additional motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts (the
                                      "Subsequent Receivables") secured by new and used automobiles, light
                                      duty trucks and vans (the "Subsequent Financed Vehicles") and
                                      related property are intended to be purchased by the Trust from the
                                      Seller from time to time on or before July 31, 1998, from funds on
                                      deposit in the Pre-Funding Account.  The Subsequent Receivables will
                                      be purchased by the Seller from AmeriCredit and CP Funding pursuant
                                      to one or more subsequent purchase agreements (each, a "Subsequent
                                      Purchase Agreement") between the Seller, CP Funding and AmeriCredit.
                                      The purchase by the Trust of the Subsequent Receivables is subject
                                      to the satisfaction of certain conditions.  The Initial Receivables
                                      and the Subsequent Receivables are hereinafter referred to as the
                                      "Receivables," and the Initial Financed Vehicles and the Subsequent
                                      Financed Vehicles are hereinafter referred to as the "Financed
                                      Vehicles."
Receivables.........................  The Receivables consist of motor vehicle retail installment sale
                                      contracts originated by Dealers and then acquired by AmeriCredit
                                      pursuant to its Contract Acquisition Program.  The motor vehicle
                                      retail installment sale contracts consist primarily of contracts
                                      with individuals with less than perfect credit due to various
                                      factors, including, among other things, the manner in which such
                                      individuals have handled previous credit, the limited extent of
                                      their prior credit history and/or their limited financial resources.

                                      The statistical information presented herein is based on the Initial
                                      Receivables as of the Statistical Calculation Date.  The Initial
                                      Receivables have an aggregate Principal Balance of $381,031,094.44
                                      as of the Statistical Calculation Date.  AmeriCredit expects that
                                      the Initial Receivables will have an aggregate Principal Balance of
                                      approximately $425,000,000 as of the Initial Cutoff Date.  The
                                      additional Receivables will represent Receivables acquired by
                                      AmeriCredit prior to the Initial Cutoff Date.  In addition, as of
                                      the Statistical Calculation Date as to which statistical information
                                      is presented herein, some amortization will occur prior to the
                                      Initial Cutoff Date.  In addition, certain Receivables included as
                                      of the Statistical Calculation Date may prepay in full or may be
                                      determined not to meet the eligibility requirements and may not be
                                      included.  As a result of the foregoing, the statistical
                                      distribution of characteristics as of the Initial Cutoff Date will
                                      vary somewhat from the statistical distribution of such
                                      characteristics as of the Statistical Calculation Date as presented
                                      herein, although such variance is not material.
                                      The Initial Receivables have, as of the Statistical Calculation
                                      Date, a weighted average annual percentage rate ("APR") of
                                      approximately 18.8%, a weighted average original maturity of
                                      approximately 57 months and a weighted average remaining maturity of
                                      approximately 55 months.  Each of the Initial Receivables also will
                                      have a remaining term of not more than 72 months and not less than 3
                                      months as of the Statistical Calculation Date.
                                      Following the Closing Date, the Trust will be obligated to purchase
                                      from time to time on or before the end of the Funding Period (as
                                      defined below), subject to the availability thereof, Subsequent
                                      Receivables consisting of retail automobile installment sale
                                      contracts acquired by the Seller from AmeriCredit and CP Funding.
                                      The aggregate Principal Balance of the Subsequent Receivables is
                                      anticipated by AmeriCredit to equal approximately $100,000,000.  In
                                      connection with each purchase of Subsequent Receivables, the Trust
                                      will be required to pay to the Seller a cash purchase price equal to
                                      the principal amount thereof from the Pre-Funding Account.
                                      AmeriCredit will designate as a cutoff date (each, a "Subsequent
                                      Cutoff Date") a date to be specified in the related  subsequent
                                      transfer agreement, provided, however, that such date shall be on or
                                      before the Subsequent Transfer Date (as defined below).  Subsequent
                                      Receivables will be conveyed to the Seller and then reconveyed by
                                      the Seller to the Trust on designated dates (each, a "Subsequent
                                      Transfer Date") occurring during the Funding Period.  The Trust may
                                      purchase the Subsequent Receivables only from the Seller and not
                                      from any other person, and the Seller may purchase the Subsequent
                                      Receivables only from  AmeriCredit and CP Funding.  The Subsequent
                                      Receivables must satisfy certain eligibility criteria.
The Policy..........................  On the Closing Date, the Insurer will issue to the Trust Collateral
                                      Agent as agent for the Indenture Trustee, a financial guaranty
                                      insurance policy (the "Policy").  Pursuant to the Policy, the
                                      Insurer will unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to the
                                      Noteholders payment of the scheduled payments for each Insured
                                      Distribution Date.
                                      The "Insured Distribution Date" will be the twelfth day of each
                                      month, or, if such twelfth day is not a Business Day, the next
                                      following Business Day.  In the event that, on any Distribution

                                      the Noteholders did not receive the full amount of the
                                      scheduled payment then due to them, such shortfall (together with,
                                      in the case of an interest shortfall, interest thereon at the
                                      related Interest Rate) shall be due and payable and shall be funded
                                      on the Insured Distribution Date either from the Spread Account or
                                      from the proceeds of a drawing under the Policy.  The Record Date
                                      applicable to an Insured Distribution Date shall be the Record Date
                                      applicable to the related Distribution Date.
Terms of the Notes..................  The principal terms of the Notes will be as described below:
   A. Distribution Dates............  For so long as AmeriCredit is the Servicer, payments of interest and
                                      principal on the Notes will be made on the fifth day of each month
                                      (or, if such fifth day is not a Business Day, on the next following
                                      Business Day; provided, that such day for payment shall in no event
                                      be earlier than the third Business Day of the month)(each, a
                                      "Distribution Date") commencing June 5, 1998.  Payments will be made
                                      to holders of record of the Notes (the "Noteholders") as of the
                                      close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such
                                      Distribution Date (a "Record Date").  A "Business Day" is a day
                                      other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks
                                      located in the states of Texas, Delaware, Ohio or New York are
                                      authorized or obligated to be closed.
                                      If the backup servicer or another successor servicer becomes the
                                      Servicer, the "Distribution Date" will thereafter become the twelfth
                                      day of each month, or if such twelfth day is not a Business Day, the
                                      next following Business Day (i.e., the "Distribution Date" and the
                                      "Insured Distribution Date" will thereafter be the same date).
                                      The Insurer will only make payment of any unpaid interest and
                                      principal on the Notes on the Insured Distribution Date, which will
                                      be the twelfth day of each month, or if such twelfth day is not a
                                      Business Day, the next following Business Day.  An "Event of
                                      Default" with respect to the Notes will only occur if the full
                                      amount of the required monthly payment has not been distributed on
                                      or prior to the related Insured Distribution Date.
   B. Final Scheduled Distribution
      Dates.........................  For the Class A-1 Notes, the June 1999 Insured Distribution Date;

                                      Distribution Date.

                                      will bear interest at the respective fixed per annum rates set forth
                                      on the cover page hereof.  The Class A-2 Notes will bear interest at
                                      a floating rate equal to the London interbank offered rates for
                                      one-month U.S. dollar deposits ("LIBOR") plus ____%.  The Class A-3
                                      Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to the London
                                      interbank offered rates for one-month U.S. dollar deposits ("LIBOR")
                                      plus ____%.  Each such interest rate for a Class of Notes is
                                      referred to as the "Interest Rate."
   D. Interest......................  Interest on the Notes of each Class will accrue at the applicable
                                      Interest Rate from and including the most recent Distribution Date
                                      on which interest has been paid (or, in the case of the first
                                      Distribution Date, from and including the Closing Date) to, but
                                      excluding, the

                                      following Distribution Date (each, an "Interest
                                      Period").  In the case of the first Distribution Date, the Interest
                                      Period shall be nine days.  The interest which accrues during an
                                      Interest Period shall accrue on the principal amount of the Notes of
                                      each Class outstanding as of the end of the prior Distribution Date
                                      (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, as of the Closing
                                      Date); provided, that if such principal balance is further reduced
                                      by a payment of principal on the Insured Distribution Date which
                                      immediately follows such prior Distribution Date, then such interest
                                      shall accrue (i) from and including such prior Distribution Date to,
                                      but excluding, such related Insured Distribution Date, on the
                                      principal balance outstanding as of the end of the prior
                                      Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution Date,
                                      as of the Closing Date) and (ii) from and including such Insured
                                      Distribution Date, to, but excluding, the following Distribution
                                      Date, on the principal balance outstanding as of the end of such
                                      Insured Distribution Date.  Interest on the Notes for any
                                      Distribution Date due but not paid on such Distribution Date will be
                                      due on the next Insured Distribution Date together with, to the
                                      extent permitted by law, interest on such amount at the applicable
                                      Interest Rate.  The amount of interest distributable on the Notes on
                                      each Distribution Date will equal interest accrued during the
                                      related Interest Period, plus any shortfall amount carried-forward.
                                      Interest on the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and the Class
                                      A-3 Notes will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the
                                      actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Period.
                                      Interest on the Class A-4 Notes and the Class A-5 Notes will be
                                      calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve
                                      30-day months.
   E. Principal.....................  Principal of the Notes will be payable on each Distribution Date in
                                      an amount equal to the Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount
                                      and the Noteholders' Accelerated Principal Amount, if any, for the
                                      calendar month (the "Monthly Period") preceding such Distribution
                                      Date.  The Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount will equal
                                      the sum of (x) the Noteholders' Percentage of the Principal
                                      Distributable Amount and (y) any unpaid portion of the amount
                                      described in clause (x) with respect to a prior Distribution Date.
                                      The "Principal Distributable Amount" with respect to any
                                      Distribution Date will be an amount equal to the sum of the
                                      following amounts with respect to the related Monthly Period,
                                      computed in accordance with the simple interest method:  (i)
                                      collections on Receivables (other than Liquidated and Purchased
                                      Receivables) allocable to principal, including full and partial
                                      principal prepayments, (ii) the Principal Balance of each Receivable
                                      (other than Purchased Receivables) that became a Liquidated
                                      Receivable during the related Monthly Period, (iii)(A) the portion
                                      of the Purchase Amount allocable to principal of all Receivables
                                      that became Purchased Receivables as of the immediately preceding
                                      Record Date and (B) at the option of the Insurer, the outstanding
                                      Principal Balances of those Receivables that were required to be
                                      repurchased by the Seller and/or AmeriCredit during such Monthly
                                      Period but were not so repurchased, and (iv) the aggregate amount of
                                      Cram Down Losses during such Monthly Period.
                                      Any amount of principal due on the Notes on a Distribution Date and
                                      not paid on such Distribution Date shall be due and payable on the
                                      following Insured Distribution Date.
                                      The Noteholders' Percentage will be 100% until the Class A-5 Notes

                                      have been paid in full and thereafter will be zero.  No principal
                                      will be paid on a Class of Notes until the principal of all Classes
                                      of Notes having a lower numerical Class designation has been paid in
                                      full.  In addition, the outstanding principal amount of the Notes of
                                      any Class, to the extent not previously paid, will be payable on the
                                      respective Final Scheduled Distribution Date for such Class (and, if
                                      not paid in full on such date, will be paid on the Insured
                                      Distribution Date immediately following such Final Scheduled
                                      Distribution Date).
   F. Optional Redemption...........  The Class A-5 Notes, to the extent still outstanding, may be
                                      redeemed in whole, but not in part, on any Distribution Date on
                                      which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables,
                                      which, subject to certain requirements can occur after the Pool
                                      Balance declines to 10% or less of the Original Pool Balance, at a
                                      redemption price equal to the unpaid principal amount of the Notes
                                      of such Class plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.  The
                                      Original Pool Balance will equal the sum of (i) the aggregate
                                      Principal Balance of the Initial Receivables as of the Initial
                                      Cutoff Date plus (ii) the aggregate Principal Balances of all
                                      Subsequent Receivables added to the Trust as of their respective
                                      Subsequent Cutoff Dates (the "Original Pool Balance").
   G. Mandatory Redemption..........  Each Class of Notes will be redeemed in part on the Mandatory
                                      Redemption Date (as defined under "Pre-Funding Account" below) in
                                      the event that any portion of the Pre-Funded Amount remains on
                                      deposit in the Pre-Funding Account at the end of the Funding Period.
                                      The aggregate principal amount of each Class of Notes to be redeemed
                                      will be an amount equal to such Class's pro rata share (based on the
                                      respective current principal amount of each Class of Notes) of the
                                      Pre-Funded Amount at the end of the Funding Period (such Class's
                                      "Note Prepayment Amount"); provided, that if the aggregate remaining
                                      amount in the Pre-Funding Account is $100,000 or less, such amount
                                      will be applied exclusively to reduce the outstanding principal
                                      balance of the Class of Notes then entitled to receive distributions
                                      of principal.
                                      The Notes may be accelerated and subject to immediate payment at par
                                      upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Indenture.  So
                                      long as no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, an
                                      Event of Default under the Indenture will occur only upon delivery
                                      by the Insurer to the Indenture Trustee of notice of the occurrence
                                      of certain events of default under the Insurance and Indemnity
                                      Agreement, dated as of May 11, 1998 (the "Insurance Agreement"),
                                      among the Insurer, the Trust, AmeriCredit, AmeriCredit Corp., CP
                                      Funding and the Seller.  In the case of such an Event of Default,
                                      the Notes will automatically be accelerated and subject to immediate
                                      payment at par.  The Policy does not guarantee payment of any
                                      amounts that become due on an accelerated basis, unless the Insurer
                                      elects, in its sole discretion, to pay such amounts in whole or in
                                      part.
Pre-Funding Account.................  On the Closing Date, a cash amount equal to approximately
                                      $100,000,000 (the "Initial Pre-Funded Amount") will be deposited in
                                      an account (the "Pre-Funding Account") which will be established
                                      with the Trust Collateral Agent.  The "Funding Period" is the period
                                      from the Closing Date until the earliest of the date on which (i)
                                      the amount on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account is less than
                                      $100,000, (ii) a Servicer Termination Event occurs under the Sale
                                      and Servicing Agreement, or (iii) July 31, 1998.  The Initial

                                      reduced from time to time during the Funding
                                      Period by the amount thereof used to purchase Subsequent Receivables
                                      in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement is referred to
                                      herein as the "Pre-Funded Amount."  The Seller expects that the
                                      Pre-Funded Amount will be reduced to less than $100,000 on or before
                                      the end of the Funding Period.  Any Pre-Funded Amount remaining at
                                      the end of the Funding Period will be payable to the Noteholders on
                                      the Mandatory Redemption Date as described herein.  The "Mandatory
                                      Redemption Date" is the earlier of (i) the Distribution Date in
                                      August 1998 or (ii) if the last day of the Funding Period occurs on
                                      or prior to the Calculation Date (as defined below) occurring in
                                      June or July 1998, the Distribution Date relating to such
                                      Calculation Date.
                                      The "Calculation Date" is the close of business on the last day of
                                      each Monthly Period.
Capitalized Interest Account........  On the Closing Date, a cash amount shall be deposited in an account
                                      (the "Capitalized Interest Account") which will be established with
                                      the Trust Collateral Agent.  The amount, if any, deposited in the
                                      Capitalized Interest Account will be applied on the Distribution
                                      Dates occurring in June, July and August 1998 to fund an amount (the
                                      "Monthly Capitalized Interest Amount") equal to the amount of
                                      interest accrued for each such Distribution Date at the weighted
                                      average Interest Rates on the portion of the Notes having a
                                      principal balance in excess of the Principal Balances of the Initial
                                      Receivables (which portion will equal the Pre-Funded Amount).  Any
                                      amounts remaining in the Capitalized Interest Account on the
                                      Mandatory Redemption Date and not used for such purposes are
                                      required to be paid directly to the Seller on such date.
Ratings.............................  It is a condition to issuance that the Class A-l Notes be rated A-1+
                                      by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill
                                      Companies, Inc. ("S&P"), and P-1 by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
                                      ("Moody's" and together with S&P, the "Rating Agencies"), and that
                                      the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes and
                                      the Class A-5 Notes be rated AAA by S&P and Aaa by Moody's.  The
                                      ratings by the Rating Agencies of the Notes will be (i) with respect
                                      to the Class A-1 Notes, without regard to the Policy in the case of
                                      S&P and substantially based on the Policy in the case of Moody's and
                                      (ii) with respect to all other Classes of Notes, based on the
                                      Policy.  To the extent that such ratings are based on the Policy,
                                      such ratings apply to distributions due on the Insured Distribution
                                      Dates, and not to distributions due on the Distribution Dates.
                                      There is no assurance that the ratings initially assigned to the
                                      Notes will not subsequently be lowered or withdrawn by the Rating
                                      Agencies.
