Some interesting numbers from a USA Today article... Posted by Charles [Email] (more from Charles) on Thu, 28 Apr 2005 07:45:59

I thought the board might be interested in some numbers about the 9-5 from a USA Today article about GM's woes:

Saab 9-5 Wagon/sedan

Days supply: 216 (longest on the list by a 56 days)

Year to date sales: 1,207 (next worse is Terraza minivan at 3,286)

Chg. from last year: -31.3%(H2 and Pontiac Montana are a little worse here)

Other sales underperformers mentioned include the Chevy SSR and Hummer H2. They also discuss that a 9-5 replacement isn't slated until 2008.
