Not sure where they got their July numbers, but this is right from the horses mouth - government registrations (which don't lie).
Damn people...stop buying that Pontiac crap!
I wonder why Car & Driver reported different numbers? Might be because they're using the self-reported numbers that Desrosiers captures...and the Big-3 tend to hold-back on reporting their "by-model breakdown" numbers until later in the month...so they just got dropped all together. IMHO that's lost marketing opportunity for them.
