The Ford Mustang, despite a two-unit year-over-year decline in the lead-up to what will invariably be a big spring for the all-new model, outsold the Chevrolet Camaro by a count of 3.3-to-1. 

The Dodge Challenger was more than twice as popular as the Camaro. 

You think Audi's 58 A5 sales was an impressive total for an aging model with a bevy of newer alternatives? BMW sold 417 copies of the 4-Series

What's a 4-Series? It's a two-door version of the 3-Series, Canada's most popular premium brand car, and it's also available as a convertible and as a four-door hatchback. Just like the, er, 3-Series.

And Honda's $22,890 CR-Z sold precisely twice as often as the USD $845,000 Porsche 918 Spyder in Canada in February. 

You can click any model name in the tables below to find historical monthly and yearly Canadian auto sales data. You can also select a make and model at GCBC's Sales Stats page. These tables are now sortable, so you can rank sports cars, coupes, GTs, roadsters, and convertibles any which way you like.

^ Mini sales include everything except the Countryman.
* also included in another GCBC segment breakdown
GCBC isn't here to break down segments, an impossible task for any group, but to display sales data for the sake of comparison. The more ways sales data can be displayed, the better. This explains why you'll see the Audi A5 here and with luxury cars, because readers have wanted it both ways. You can always find the sales results for EVERY vehicle and form your own competitive sets by using the All Vehicle Rankings posts. Clearly GoodCarBadCar is not suggesting that the cars in the tables above are all direct competitors. Establishing categories among cars as unique as even the Audi TT and Porsche Boxster has never pleased a single reader, so cars have been lumped together so you can simply see how buyers looking for sports cars, roadsters, hot hatches, convertibles, GTs, and wanna-be sports cars spend their money. Greater categorization of cars would only lead to problems that automakers create by not isolating model-specific sales figures: we don't know how many M3s BMW has sold or how many Civics are Si models, for example. The numbers we do have are listed above. GoodCarBadCar is always open to hearing about the ways you would break down segments, so feel free to get in touch.
