Toyota finally up - i was checking the numbers and a lot of their NA cars still have significant production in Japan, like RX, Rav4, Corolla... so production levels in NA are still lagging.

Also there is a C-class coupe now.

I just looked at the numbers as well, the Toyota Yaris sales are off the chart 150% increase. The disturbing thing is how bad the Toyota SUVS and trucks are doing, aside from the Tacoma, they are doing real bad.

On the Lexus front, its good to see Lexus up in sales over last year for November

Prius v sold 3500 units in its first full month of sales. That is better than Toyota's initial projection.

Mercedes had a really kick *** month and they got some new exciting products and core products doing well. New C-class coupe, new M class SUV, even the GL sold like a beast. E-class, we've said it for years..just a monster in its class outselling many in the class below it.

When Mercedes wins that sales title I assure you they are going to milk that for all to know Which is really dangerous for everyone else as Mercedes is already seen as a "winner" with tons of prestige. Adding that big title is only going to bolster it and move people to the brand,

Luxury Sales
1. Mercedes-Benz - 27,841
2. BMW - 21,521
3. Lexus - 19,458
4. Cadillac - 11,141
5. Buick - 10,880
5. Acura - 9909
6. Audi - 9700
7. Infiniti - 8428
8. Lincoln - 6305
9. Porsche - 2255
10. Saab - 356
11. Maserati - 191
12. Bentley - 138

There is a huge gap between the top 3 and everyone else. I'm starting to think Buick should be taken out since they have a car starting at what 24k in the Verano?

Also note Audi is now steady beating Infiniti every month and nipping at Acura's heels most months.

Actually the Mercedes number should exclude the Sprinter van, bringing the total down to 26,796, which is still staggering.

November sales were affected by constrained supply and low inventory.

"While we continue to experience low inventory, we are optimistic about our newest product line-up," said Thomas J. Doll, executive vice president and chief operating officer, Subaru of America, Inc. "We just unveiled the all-new BRZ sports car that will go on sale this coming spring. We also announced a new small crossover model; known in other markets as XV, this vehicle will come to the U.S. next fall as the Subaru XV CrossTrek."

"We have weathered a number of unforeseen inventory shortages this year," said Bill Cyphers, SVP Sales, Subaru of America, Inc. "Despite those set-backs, our retail sales still outpace last year's record-breaking numbers – a testament to the demand for Subaru vehicles. The new models hitting showrooms in 2012 will help us support this consumer demand."
