Over the course of the last five months Audi hasn't been able to match previous-year A5 sales. Yet over the course of the last twelve months, Audi has posted repeated year-over-year gains with its lower-volume coupe, the TT.

The Porsche 911 was a spectacularly popular car in February, as you'll see by its domination of the table at the bottom of this post. There were no entry-level 911s sold in February save for one Carrera Cabriolet. The 911 Carrera S found 31 new owners. The GTS, Carrera 4 GTS, Carrera 4S, Targa 4, Targa 4S, and Carrera 4S Cabriolet together filled in with 12 more sales.
Sales figures for these models and every other nameplate currently on sale in America can be found by accessing the dropdown menu at the top right of this page. After the jump you'll see February 2012's Canadian sales details for 30 roadsters, convertibles, coupes, GTs, sports cars, and wannabe sportsters.

Clearly GoodCarBadCar is not suggesting that the cars in the two 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.
