Taken from this month's edition of Corvette Magazine...
..." Though Chevrolet has managed to keep monthly Corvette sales above the 1,000 unit mark, the 1,109-vehicle tally for September 2010 represents a 30% decline compared to the same month in 2009. Overall, sales aren't quite so weak, but they are down. Year to date, Chevrolet has sold 9,798 Corvettes, representing a 9% decrease capared to this time last year"...
kinda translates that the Corvette sales may be even lower than the 2009 totals of 16,956 and the 2010 totals of 12,194! :ack2: If that 9% decline remains the trend for the 2011 MY, this could mean an almost 1100 unit reduction from the 2010 totals to a new low of less than 11,000 (+/-) units sold for 2011.
We know the Corvette will not 'go away', but what this tells me is that this recession is still deep, and ongoing, unlike what this current Administration propaganda czars keep spewing. :hehehe:
