I would like to know the breakdown of the RDX models. Based on this forum it seems as though the Advance and ASpec are the top models for the RDX. Just curious.
It would be interesting to see the breakdown of each trim package as % of overall sales I'd also like to see it for lease vs. buy.
I was told by at least one salesman, they sell mostly Standard and Tech packages because 80% of their sales are leases. Hardly anyone leases an ASpec or Advance because of the higher payments. I don't know about other US regions or Canada. I would think the lease vs. own ratio is not as high in most other places. Kind of a cultural thing. Most of the people I know personally, young and old, lease their cars.
RDX sales remained strong but a huge dip from last June.
Don't know if I would call that strong; it barely out-sold the MDX that's going on 6 model years now. The CRV didn't see such a precipitous drop MoM and it's outselling it's bigger brother 3:1.

Rdx has barely any incentives but MDX is at the end of its generation, lots of incentives.
Last June included a ton of incentives to clear out the 2018 RDX and probably included people rushing out to buy the 2018 RDX and still get the V6 engine. Not really a one to one comparison.

Excellent observation! I agree. June and July were probably high due to 2018 model.
They are only selling about a thousand ILXs, I wouldn't call it much of an accomplishment. The front end looks nice and they are only asking ~$25k for it so I would hope they could do much better. You can end up spending that much on the Civic. Maybe they need to do a better job of letting people know just how cheap you can get one for? I thought that was the purpose of the ILX, get younger people in the door and either upsell them now or later.
I'm more surprised that they're still able to sell a car that's riding on essentially the same platform as a car that came out 14 years ago. Who do they think they are, Toyota or Dodge?
Wow the last 3 months continue to be a blood bath for the accord. The Odyssey continues to struggle mightily.
The passport & pilot should be grouped together and that is having a nice uptick and the MDX's performance given how ancient it is really is doing well.

Most of the people I know, buy their cars. One tried it once, is too frugal, and never tried it again. One leases his Mercedes because he likes late model German cars and he doesn’t care about the cost. The last one cannot afford to buy what she leases, so she leases it so strangers think she is more wealthy than she is.
My friends with the most money buy. One guy is a hedge fund guy, and he says that he buys what he wants to drive, and sells when he doesn’t want to drive it anymore, and doesn’t want to keep up with lease rules.
