ATLANTA--Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), importer and distributor of Porsche sports cars and Cayenne SUVs in the United States and Canada, today announced its fourth consecutive record sales month with 2,548 units sold for the month of August in the United States.

With 830 units sold, Porsche's new generation Cayenne continued its outstanding performance with sales up 21 percent over previous July sales of 684. Year-to-date, there were 7,919 Cayennes sold, up 8 percent over August 2006 sales of 7,313.
