If you look at the 3 year history, the numbers are following a trend. They seem to peak in April, then trail off thru November.

Never realized how much rarer a Challenger is than a Camaro or Mustang.

hmm... wonder if the sales gain the Mustang is making will finally warrant a factory HP bump

The reason you see the hump like that for Ford is they get their 13s out the door and deal on them a little faster than GM does. 13 Mustangs already offering financing incentives where GM generally does spot promotions during the same period. Sort of a circle of Marketing like give you 500 bucks vs .9% financing - GM does bad on getting promotions off the stickers and to the consumer. I bought a Silverado yesterday before the over 9K in total incentives went offline for it with all the packaged incentives being offered and not being advertised - cruise the lots you will see. I got a 13 for way less than I could pick up a 12 which is stupid for any manufacturer.

I have consistently seen a lot nicer equipped Mustangs V6's for the price of a standard 1LT. You can also get into a GT for $30.5K sticker price.

I didn't know Mustangs and Camaros were that neck and neck, I thought the Camaro had a pretty far lead on sales.

The Challenger sales arn't surprising though, given a standard V8 can cost around $40k...

The Challenger was meant to be lower volume, it's not really an apples to apples comparison.
