If the new Sienna and upcoming revised Odyssey are successful, I'm sure H/K will roll out an updated mini-van.

Wow, thats the first time I've seen the G sedan outsell the ES. Can't just be the lease deals since the ES has similar rates. The HS and IS are probably stealing sales. RX sales are crazy though 5694. The RX/ES/IS do have really good lease deals right now though
ES - 2349
G sedan - 2686
G sedan/coupe/convertible - 3956
IS sedan/convertible - 1991
HS - 712
For comparison,
TL - 2410

Interesting to see HS sales decline...I would imagine this is related to the brake software recall. Even then, I have been talking to a few insiders and dealers and evidently the car is not selling very well.
Perhaps sales will spike if/when gas prices rise.

The HS main merit for sale is MPG and gas has risen but it looks like not to levels that will make the HS more of an option for buyers. Outside MPG it doesn't look as good as most anything else, performance is adequate and it is PRICEY. The car starts at 35k to 45k. That is IS 350/IS 350 money. It is NOT a cheap car!

Looking at the Entry Lux trends, I'd really like to know the average transaction prices for LaCrosse and what percent of those are retail sales. I believe Buick aimed the LaCrosse at the ES. I know LaCrosse can range in the upper 20's and optioned up into the low 40's with AWD and navigation.
From the raw numbers, Buick looks to have a legit contender in the entry luxury/premium marketplace.
