August sales of the 5 Series were up an encouraging 16.4% over last August with sales of 5,173 units this month and 4,445 sold last August. However, YTD sales for the first 8 months of 2007 were down 5.4% when compared to the same 8 months of 2006.
By comparison, August sales of the Mercedes-Benz E Class totaled only 3,718 units, down 6.0% from the 3,955 the previous August. Sales of the MB E Class were ?flat? for the first 8 months of 2007 as the year to year increase was a mere 37 units.
Please note that I report only United States sales data.

Anybody surprised that the 2008 528i is outselling the 535i? The reverse is true for the xi models. With all of the discussion I follow here and on bimmerfest, you would think that the 535i is outselling the 528 10:1!

I did my part to boost those August numbers with the August 2 Euro Delivery of my 550 Sport.

What are the launch to current period sales of the e60 vs the e39 ? My sense is that the e39 was a slightly more successful model ???

Fred's reports go back to 2003. Just flip the .pdf page and you should be able to find some E39 data for comparison...
