R-Class sales in the U.S.

2005

Sept - 386 (debuted in mid-Sept, only 2 weeks on the market)
Oct - 930 (first full month)
Nov - 1213
Dec - 2430 (a typical high-volume month due to special lease deals on all MBs)

2006
Jan - 686
Feb - 2469 <--- Whoa!
Mar - 1915
Apr - 1672
May -1485
Jun - 1445
July -1485
Aug - 1698
Sep - 1276
Oct - 1216

The next few months will really tell the story of the R-Class in the U.S. Sales were steadily increasing from Sept to Dec, but Jan fell a lot. Typically Jan is a slow month for Mercedes in the U.S. due to all the special lease deals being pulled and little to no advertising.

Mercedes would like that Dec 2005 figure to be the norm, won't happen.
