Nissan has finally began reselling. Ofcourse this is helped by the launch of all the new products, but I also have a feeling they are heavily discounting their SUVs and Trucks to move them.

Mazda IMO might just have the best lineup for a non luxury brand and sales are down 21% for cars? The new SUVs are the only thing holding it up.
Same with Acura, the RDX kept sales flat, but cars were down tons.
THe new LS wasn't even out a month and sales are up over 30%..
Lexus=sales champion AGAIN!

Just look at Civic - sales lower than old model... how much sense does that make? Are they trying to say that they lost production in their factories or something?
