They're down 10% from last year. And in 2021 and 2022 they weren't number one.
Plus they quit making the Challenger and Camaro so it didn't even have any competition last year. Selling leftovers.
Can they get their warranty and quality issues to go along with it?
They also weren't selling 130,000 M2's ten years ago. Thats the problem the Mustang has.
I don't think they care that much as they sell a lot of others cars and the Mustang is the only car ford still sells.
I don't want the Mustang to go away. I have come to terms with it if it does. Ford needs to turn the shop around.
There have been times where the Mustang was the best car to buy. It's turning into not one of those times again.
But the level of denial with some people is just crazy.
Funny way to say one is on the way up and one is dying.
Anyway...According to the BMW Forums, 2022 M2 sales were:
11,753 total USA (approx)
They're probably around 20,000 a year for the M2 in 2024.
Now can we count the regular 2-series cars? We're counting the EcoBoost Mustangs so why not...
Because the Trofeos will be damaged sitting outside the factory if it gets cold. Very fragile compared to the P-Zeros or Michelins. They cars are made in Michigan and it can get down to zero farenheit or colder in the winter...
BMW is doing fine selling coupes:
The M2 had an excellent 2024, with demand rising by 64%, while the more practical M3 Touring was up by 57%
Corvette sales are up, too. Neck and neck with the Mustang.
I know as Camaro owners got older they would 'graduate' to Corvettes, maybe Mustang guys are...
It's not that its a sports car, it's that it's "cool"
Or it was cool.
Looked cool. Made you cool. Sure it had terrible back seats, sucked in the snow, blah blah.
Majority of them were the V6 models in the 'cool' days.
They aren't cool anymore. It was a fashion accessory. People would rather...
The Mustang has had a sales problem since 2007 or so. They went from selling 130,000+ a year down to 80,000 a year. And that was probably fine because it's double what they sold last year. They had a very short spike in 2015 when they updated the 10-year old chassis but it didn't last long...
