Audi is definitely on the move.
With the new A5/S5 and then the new A4 coming out, I'd have to guess that a year from now their sales will have to be up at least 10-15% over today's levels(if we don't have a worldwide recession).

I was just in europe and can't believe how many audis there are - way, way more than in the US. It is one of the most common vehicles on the road. I am not surprised about their sales numbers.

Supra - this is the official Audi press release. It gives sales by country. The U.S. has fallen to Audi's #4 market after Germany, Great Britain, and China. That is interesting.

ding dong - there are no more A2's on sale. and by the way - since you feel that way - why don't you take out the 1 series from BMW's lineup.

The 1-series. I bet these BMW owners are really loaded to drive their sub $30K BMWs.

amazinBimmer, the sales race is getting ever closer.....

so now Amazinidiot's arguement has changed from "People don't buy the rebaged VW because they are crap" to "People buy the rebaged VW's because they are cheep" so what is it? Is my rebaged S6 cheap? is the RS6 cheap? is the A6 cheap? is the R8 cheap? is the S8 cheap? Is the A8 cheap? is the A5/S5 cheap?

grow up and find a BMW post to talk in. Amazing tell your parents you have been on the computer to long and that you want to go play with your Xbox now.
