December 5 Series sales showed a nice ?jump? as they were up 16.6% when compared to last December. YTD sales of the 5 Series for all of 2006 were up 7.7% compared to all of 2005.
By way of comparison, sales of the Mercedes-Benz E Class were up 12.3% with sales of 7,116 units this month and 6,334 units last December. YTD sales of the MB E Class were down a mere 0.4% for all of 2006.
Sales of the BMW 5 Series and the MB E Class were fairly close for both December and all of 2006 as the 5 Series ended up 2006 only 6,561 sales ahead of the E Class.
Please note that I report only United States sales data.

56,756 units this year. Sick. That's more than:
Cadillac CTS
Lexus IS Series
Volkswagen Passat
MB E-Class
Audi A4
MINI Cooper
Infiniti M Series
Volvo V70
Audi A6
The old E39 typically sold only about 40,000 units every year in the U.S.

BMW E60 56,756
MB E class 50,195
Lexus GS 27,390
Infiniti M 25,658
Audi A6 16,216
Acura RL 11,501
Jaguar S 5,875
Volvo S80 5,469
The Infiniti G35 sold 60,741 units, but I think it competes with the BMW 3 series, which sold 120,180.
