Ack. Those were numbers from Canada I was quoting. Got fooled by the PCNA heading.
Numbers through May are now available, and Porsche says Cayenne sales will be equal to last year.
Best Month in History for Porsche in North America
ATLANTA, June 1 -- Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), importer and distributor of Porsche sports cars and Cayenne SUVs in the United States and Canada, today announced May retail sales in the United States totaled 3,291 cars, an increase of 25 percent compared to May of last year. In addition to being the best May result in the U.S., it was the best month in history for Porsche in North America. Combined sales for Canada and the U.S. totaled 3,567 in May, surpassing the previous record of 3,547 set in December 1986.
"We couldn't have asked for a better result in May," said Peter Schwarzenbauer, PCNA President and CEO. "With our fiscal year ending in July, we are looking forward to setting yet another sales record, thanks to our sports cars, which are hot, and the Cayenne, which will finish the fiscal year at the same level as last year."
In addition, dealers sold 544 Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned vehicles, compared to 452 for the same period last year.
