CT still consistently strong in sales at 1762.

Acura car sales are dismal. Upcoming TLX is their last hope.

Holy crap Audi has passed Acura sales YTD....that has never happened before.....The A3 is a huge hit already and ironically is where Acura used to do so well in, FWD small cars.

bmw sales are amazing...

that...or the 5K price drop. still great numbers. The usual juggernauts are still unstoppable in the industry. Brand and model loyalty are everything

yep... plus, everyone has 0% from Ford Fusion to Passat, plus a lot of them offer cashback on 0% leases.

In fact, compared to Fusion and Altima, Camry usually has lower incentives - around $500 from Fusion and $1k lower than Altima...

GX got new base model with less equipment, not really a price drop - now they have a spread between $50k and $66k... Something they should try with LX as well - have LX pick up where GX leaves off - $70k. Lower cost base models are something Germans have been doing forever.

GX is so hot, they dont have enough of them on the lots. Even RX needs more supply... NX cant come in the better time.

Another nice month for the GS with 1,753 sold. Lexus has done a better job of advertising lately, so I'm sure that's helping.

ToMoCo SUVs, CUVs and trucks are on fire!!!
IS200t + RC + 300h + F versions possibly... those should be able to take IS over 6k, maybe even 7k. Right now it is brand new so sales are at their highest.... they will drop down a bit in 2nd and 3rd year, but RC + 2.0t + 300h + F will help for sure.

True, but IIRC last year sales of the old S-class were nowhere near 2k/mo it was more in line with other competitors.
