...Another distribution blunder. 9-3 sales weren't as high as hoped, because of the high number of Launch Package cars. Dealers only received one or two $25,900 cars, and the rest were equipped with a price tag of over $30k. Having no "ad cars" available is a big no-no. There were actually ZERO 9-3 Linears built with Automatic Transmission only! None; not one. Can you believe that? Someone had their head buried in the sand. Having said this, the majority of the sold units have been 9-5's (I can't speak for other regions, but the in the Western Region this holds true). I think that it shows strength that our 9-3 sales are down over last year's November, yet our sales are up. It is truly a testament to how great a vehicle the 9-5 is.
Cheers,
Brian.
