3 and 5 are doing very well..but the 7 and x3 *thmbsdwn*....

I'm not surprised TL isnt on the top of the charts because they came out with the new ugly design so i guess people arent liking it very much..wish they could have kept the previous shape..

Interesting stats.

[MiroE36]

the 7 loses value too fast

[Manimillion]

is that the actual numbers of cars sold?

[damameke]

Not surprised that the RDX and TSX are selling well..

I agree with your observation of the the new TL design, I guessed it has to grow on you, I prefer the old design.. cleaner line

In normal time. these numbers should be much higher, even Porsche sale is down.

You are not kidding.

Looks as if people do not want to pay for the name anymore.

[Fe9L]

Manimillion: yeah i think those are the actual numbers...

Some people are still paying for the name..but the majority are realizing that known names are costing alot of coin, and other companies are almost offering the same things or more at a lower price; prime examples are Lexus and Acura...their cars come fully loaded and almost always cheaper than their German rivals!

Wow very cool. Glad too see the 5 is still on top!
