I saw a breakdown on the forum recently of Turbos manufactured for USA over the years. Are there figures for C2, C2S, C4 C4s year by year as well? Just curious, now that I own a 2009 C2 I am first becoming aware there are not that many other Carreras on the road???

 

Here are sales numbers for PCNA, all models, through November.

Depends on where you live. Around here Carreras are like Toyota Avalons. I forget how special my car is sometimes until I drive down to western PA to see my girl's family. I feel like a rock star out there.

 

How do you think I feel here in So. Calif? 911s are like Hondas. A 911 around every curve.

 

Makes you want a Lamborghini doesn't it? ;P

 

Interesting the Turbo Cab was the best selling 911 last year looking at the "Prior Year" column (does that refer to the whole year 2008 or from Nov 07 to Nov 08)?

 

Anyone has the data for number of Carreras sold in World during the last few years?

 

I like seeing lots of 911s around me. Standing out, as per the car I drive, is not my thing.

 

I think that on average PAG makes about 20k 911s (all models) per year.

 

too much attention in a lambo... i rather stick to my carrera

 

funny you should ask................................only 6,296 total "911" models sold in USA in 2009....Chevy would die if these were Impala sales figs!!!

Porsche has rather drastically restricted allocations (the right for a dealer to order a specified model) going forward.

I was told this week that there will be no allocations for C4/C4S cars for the indefinite future. (This forced the cancellation of an order that I had placed in September.) Happily, my dealer was able to trade for an existing allocation that could be modified to my specifications.

 

Chevy is dying ...

(have you driven a GM or Chrysler car lately? I had the bad luck of the 911 in the shop and had a rental, oh my god are these cars bad ...)

 

Did they say the reason why?
