New 3 series off to a flyer...

 

[K-A]

Just when M-B start to pull ahead.... the new 3-Series comes out.

Audi's growth-gains were a lot softer than usual/than its competitors.

The A6 showed strong year-over-year gain (no surprise, last year was the 7 year old, mostly unpopular model), but it's still under 1K Sales. I don't think it's gonna be too sought after, though it'll be respected (as Audi's story seems to go in the U.S). The new GS showed massive improvement over the old GS (no surprise) but that bland thing with its desperately wannabee-aggressive front end still came in less than the E/5.

I don't get it. Audi keeps saying that more people are buying Audis than BMW, MB and Lexus and yet they are behind BMW, MB and Lexus. What the hell?

When did they say that about USA?? Please quote. Cause it would be stupid to say something like this. Defeitely NOT the states.
Worldwide yes. But the States have always been a weak market for Audi. Now they are picking up more and more.

Anyways, great numbers for all 3. And Audi is finally getting more and more attention in the US

The sls is reqally selling for well , i wonder how well its dong compared to when the SLR was out, can we get sales numbers of the 2 to compare and see which is more succesful..?

 

[Merc1]

Easily the SLS outsells the SLR, not even a contest. The SLS has sold hundreds of units in just one year compared to 2500 or less for 7 years of the SLR. By the time the SLS's run is over it will have likely doubled or more the SLR's production run.

Isn't the SLR much more expensive? That's like comparing Sales of a C to an S-Class, lol.

 

[Omarus]

I don't understand something, in some other thread there was some graph posted (i don't remember which thread it was and can't find it now), where it said that S class still outsells both A8 and BMW 7 in US, i'm sure some of you saw it too, yet on above links it's claimed otherwise, 7 sells better than S, even year ago they sold more, so that graph was false?
