Thats a huge difference despite slow overall sales.
That has to be a typo..Overall, say goodbye to Jag. The new XK is up but 300 sales a month will not hold that brand up from a coupe.
Goodbye Jaguar, u will be missed

Yaris & FJ Cruiser
Impressive #s indeed but keep in mind that the Yaris & FJ Cruiser were not offered last year, so that makes up 13,000 of that 20.2%. Regardless, sales did improve @ a remarkable rate.
More importantly: The GS300/350 had an increase! Not to mention, outsold the Infiniti M35/45 by a good margin.

So many 3-series models. I did make out that the 335i Coupe is outselling the lesser 328i/xi by quite a big margin. Looks like folks have no problem paying for a 45-50K 3-series, but it is one hell of a car IMO.

TO think the LS is around the corner. Sales will shoot even higher.
Look at the GX holding on last month! up 2 sales (but 1 more selling day in the month)
GS sales are remaining good, seems they will meet the 2,000 sales target for the GS 450h at this rate. GS 350 sales are good and it was a SOFT launch with minimal advertising.
