Interesting. Audi having positions 1 and 11 is impressive. The TT (#1) is most likely cheaper than those in slots 2-7 at least though.

I wouldn't say it's that impressive, like you said, number 1 is pretty cheap (as it should be) and everything after 11 is either really high priced and exotic, or 'foreign' and lacks a wide distribution network in Germany

It's pretty surprising to me to see that more than twice as many 911s are sold than Boxser/Caymans, I would have never expected that

Not surprising at all. The top eight are German cars.

Historically and traditionally, I believe it's always been the best seller.
