Porsche Cars North America Reports August 2005 Sales
Porsche Starts New Fiscal Year with 7 Percent Increase
ATLANTA, Sept. 1 -- Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), importer and distributor of Porsche sports cars and Cayenne SUVs in the United States and Canada, today announced August retail sales in the United States totaled 2,735 cars, an increase of 7 percent compared to August of last year. It was the second-best August on record for PCNA.
"August was the first month of Porsche's new fiscal year, and it was a fine start for us," said Peter Schwarzenbauer, PCNA President and CEO. "For the first time this summer, we had inventory levels that allowed our dealers to meet their customers' demands for our Porsche 911 range."
Sales in recent months have been slowed by limited supply. Nonetheless, PCNA's fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 with a 3.6 percent increase.
In addition, dealers sold 468 Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned vehicles compared to 341 for the same period last year.
