But that's not what you're looking for in the June 2012 Canadian sports car sales results. Sales of the Scion FR-S reached 410 in its first month on sale in Canada. Admittedly, there was some pent-up demand, demand we already discussed on the U.S. side over at TTAC. Regardless of how the lengthy the lineup at Scion and Subaru dealers may have grown over the many months consumers spent waiting for the Toyobaru, 410 Canadian FR-S buyers in a 30-day span means something.

Oh, and Subaru sold 114 BRZs in June. We expected the BRZ to find fewer buyers than its FR-S twin. We wouldn't have anticipated the BRZ's victory over the Nissan 370Z in the Z's second-best sales month since May 2010.
Sales figures for higher-end sporting machines are visible after the jump. You can gain access to historical monthly and yearly sales figures for every vehicle currently on sale in North America through the first dropdown menu at GCBC's Sales Stats home or near the top right of this page.

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.
