How Many 128/135's have been sold in the US?

Double Nick · 04-03-2009, 10:35 AM

Title nails it. Breakdown of 128 vs 135, coupes vs convertible. Thanks. Nick

You might want to be a bit more specific Nick. Here is a break down for march. It also tells where they are YTD.

dang, down about 25%. Interesting numbers!

$2K car should be brought from India soon. It will hurt all cars sales badly.

The Nano does not meet North American Safety or Emissions standards, it will not be brought over here, and you will not see them on the roads in North America. Anyone attempting to bring one here will be held back at the border. Since it is small enough to be smuggled in a container of household effects, I expect someone will try. It is not much more than an enclosed golf cart - perhaps Tata can sell them as golf carts here?

Interesting how few z4's have sold.

Too many people care about what they drive for that to be true. Otherwise you would have bought a Hyundai Accent instead of your 135i convertible.

But isn't the real problem that there aren't enough cupholders for the average U.S. driver?

Where do you guys find these numbers? I've been trying to look up car sales figures for different manufacturers, the top competitors to the 135, STi, Evo and 350/370Z.

Arizona_Steve · 04-04-2009, 12:11 PM

What is up with the Z4 sales. Is it because people knew about the 2010 MY upgrades?

The Z4 was discontinued for 2009. The sales you see there are the remaining 2008 models dealers had left over.

The exact number by model ('vert, 128/135) are posted in the last Roundel. Don't have it in front of me, but if someone has it handy they can post. From memory, LTD it was something like 3,500 135i's...
