Mr. Thomas

Your numbers are wrong for Honda Accord they sold 290,056 for 2009 which means Camry and Corolla outsold the Accord, the numbers you are referring to are 2008 total sales for Accord.

Honda Accord correct sales can be found at www.hondanews.com

WOHO F SERIES!
wish the fusion did better though and i think fords sale would sky rocket if they brought some of their popular vehicles from australia, europe...etc and i love the australian Ford Falcon..anybody else?

I would say one of the biggest winners is the ford fusion with sales increasing from last year. Many at the top actually decreased greatly.

GM does not have 1 single car on the list - how pathetic. Even when they dump them on rental lots the sales numbers are still low. They should have never received our tax dollars.

Last time I checked, the Silverado was still a GM product.

As Dee said, your number for the total Honda Accord sales count is incorrect. You can easily refer to your monthly listings and sum the records of Accord, it is exactly 290096. It means Accord is in the sixth place after below Corolla and above Civic. Please correct this report because your site is the reference for many other sites and this mistake will spread an incorrect report and has the mental influence on readers.

In November I was cross-shopping the '10 Malibu LT2 with the '10 Fusion SE. I bought the Fusion because the comparably-equipped Malibu was $1500 more. For me it just came down to price.

Honda Civic is in the middle. I guess I had right buying it!
