Porsche Cars North America Reports November U.S. Sales

ATLANTA, Dec. 3, 2002; Porsche Cars North America, Inc., (PCNA), importer and distributor of Porsche sports cars in the United States, today announced U.S. retail sales for November totaled 1,640 cars, an 8 percent decrease over the same period last year.

"Because of economic and political forces, the market for sports cars has suffered, particularly in the past eight weeks," said Frederick J. Schwab, PCNA President and CEO. "Porsche's recent sales performance, while down, is better than that of several competitors. Porsche's mid- and long-term outlook continues to be positive."
