April sales of the 3 Series reached a new high of 13,142 units this month on the strength of the sales of the new 328 and 335 models. This represents a significant 17.9% increase over the 11,151 cars sold last April and is quite an achievement in today’s marketplace. YTD sales of 46,333 units of the 3 Series are up a whopping 19.0% over the 38,930 units sold during the same 4 months of 2006. Munich has to be happy.

Lexus IS250 and IS350 sales totaled 4,363 units this month, down 7.5% from the 4,715 sold last April.

Mercedes Benz sold 5,131 C Class units in April, up 27.1% from the 4,037 units sold last April. I am assuming that Mercedes-Benz has a lot of trunk money on the existing C Class to clear out the current inventory prior to introduction of the new C Class later this summer.

Please note that I am report only the United States sales data.

My CA sold 17 BMW'S this month out of a tiny BMW dealer (2 car showroom)
Not bad for a twenty something 4'10" girl. ....I was one of her sales. It tied her record when she worked at a MEGA multi dealer. Only 3 months at BMW. She said its easy.......BMW's sell themselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am actully a little surprised with ~900 e92 3.0TT units per month in US, for some reason expected more.

Maybe the waiting period is holding the sales number down.

Have any sale figures for Acura and Infiniti?

There are huge delays on the 335i in the UK at the moment, assume it's the same in the US so they won't shift as many as they could.

Some people on the UK forum have been quoted December delivery dates for a 335i E92! March '08 if you want an E93!

Maybe, but the economy has slowed a bit and credit is tightening due to the housing slump. It is going to be a bit harder for people to qualify for car loans/leases, especially if they are stretching to get into a 3 series rather than a Honda, Toyota etc.
