If such a thing was a available, and I don't think a single one exists, it would be done by an outside firm without GM approval. GM does not and probably legally could not customize cars to this extent. They'd have to crash test one, for one thing.

The list is a nice dream list, but GM does not currently have the resources to pull it off, and if they did they'd lose a ton of money on the venture unless you see this rolling out over 10-15 years. In which case it could be viable and might well be where they're heading.
