It looks like you could pound a nail with it, but I have my misgivings...

If GRM made a hammer, we'd talk about it and obsess over it and get REALLY pissed off if they changed it or it didn't work right. It would also be made in a shed from the parts of other hammers and be better than any new hammer.
If Chuck Norris made a hammer, it would bow to his superior ability to drive nails with his bare hands.
If Kia made a hammer, they would probably only sell it in Canada and Europe and not let us American buy that awesome hammer. Come on!
If Nissan made a hammer, it would suck in quality, but be fully automatic, belt-fed, and dirt cheap.

But none of us would buy it, citing "I'll wait until it hits the bottom of the depreciation curve."

The military woukd also try to retire the hammer repeatedly for other "superior " Lockheed hammers, but keep it going because it's still one of the most useful hammers ever.
Lockheed calls their hammer a hammer, but also insists that it'd a harpoon, and a hummingbird, but in reality, it's a brick.
If Toyota made a hammer, it would last forever if used for slow nail pounding, but if you tried to swing it quickly it would handle very poorly and feel like the handle was a piece of rubber.

My experience would be the opposite. It would scratch, melt, bulbs and bearings would fail. Guidance system (as in steering column) would fail at low miles. When you'd go to the hammer junk yard to find parts every one would have the same failures and even useless. It would also send you to sleep trying to use it.
