Here is the easy way
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-relea...-reports-list/
For those with an AutoNews subscription there is a lot of additional data shared there.
lol .I've done it for nearly a decade and try to organize lists that are what the industry uses. GS69 organizes lists and doesn't share them here since they would be extremely questionable.
As advice, post the news and put it in quotes and then link the news outside the quote so people can more easily recognize it as a news release and not your words.
RX sold over 9000. 
The MDX should sell more, like the RX there is now a FWD and AWD model. Sadly their sedans are selling about as bad as it can get and are very unloved by consumers.

It was a big month for sales in the auto industry and at SEMA people were very upbeat about the future of the automobile and the industry as a whole.
