Well I guess that puts to rest the argument before that they weren't selling

Well it actually doesn't. Those sales numbers are just what has been delivered to the dealers, not what is actually sold to customers. The worldwide numbers won't tell the story about whether or not the C is selling well at your local dealer. It will take some time to know that.

I agree...I read a similar article and they do not specifically state the C Class is responsible. My salesman says there's a 6 month wait for the CLA...and you have approximately 30 new "C"s to choose from sitting on the lot. Although I'm glad to hear that sales are up in general for MB

It is the amazing what a teaser 30K price and the star can do together.
