LOL. I wonder how Pontiac's sales are compared to Buick and Cadillac?

SSbaby

You have to put it into perspective... Buick and Cadillac are higher end brands and sell with larger profit margins.

Pontiac wasn't making money for GM. Why else would GM drop Pontiac regardless of how many cars it sold?

graham

I dont know but another variable that turned constant is it takes too much money to make a Chevy an interesting Pontiac.

Exactly, that's like saying Toyota outsold Ferrari, where's the surprise in that?

christianjax

Well if that's true. Then maybe they should slap a Buick nose and tailights on the Camaro and Call it a Grand National. (available in BLACK ONLY of course)

Do those numbers include all the Buicks sold in China? I heard Buick is a big brand over there.

US only, Buick in china nearly sells as much as chevrolet here.

azfan

Buick was kept because it's popular in China. The new Lacrosse looks great, but they need another car to go with it.

Astra, Regal...

Let's see now...........June 2009 Sales

Buick 8,601

Cadillac 8,473

Total 17,078

Camaro, 9,320. But the Camaro numbers are great, none the less.

So yes, the Camaro outsold Buick and it outsold Cadillac, but not combined as the OP suggests.

Yep, the guy is just an idiot...I thought maybe he was just referring to "car" sales but even those dont add up....
4,807 Buick
6,138 Caddy
_____
10,945 total


OVER half of Buick sales are from the Enclave...should be a good sign that people are still interested in Buick....
