Re: Porsche sales for July

The picture just keeps getting worse. I'm afraid that Pedro might be right. If Boxster sales keep dropping like this, there won't be much reason for Porsche to want to sell it.

331 Box/Cay sales in a month when historically they have sold in much higher numbers in NA--not good.
The trend seems pretty clear now that the 718 has been out for a year--for some reason (sound/price/down turn in sports car sales/?) sales for this model and market segment have tanked, making Porsche even more dependent on sales of SUV's & sedans.

The 911 sales drop seems even more significant than the 718 sales drop; considering it's a new edition with more power, sounds decent and rave reviews the drop in sales looks even more problematic, given this is their flagship model.

After a while, lots of folks catch on to Porsche usuary pricing and option bundling. Just maybe their time has passed.
