ATLANTA--In the wake of a wary consumer market for new cars spurred by growing negative news about the nation's economy, Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), importer and distributor of Porsche sports cars and Cayenne SUVs in the United States, today announced February new-car sales of 1,715 in the United States, representing a 13% decrease from February 2007 sales of 1,967.

While the somber consumer mood impacted sports car sales in particular, Porsche's Cayenne range--including the newly launched Cayenne GTS--showed significant resilience recording more than double the sales this past month over February 2007.

In addition, dealers sold 552 Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned cars in September vs. 453 for the same period last year.
