SRX leads Cadillac Oct 11 Sales

Overall Cadillac sales were down 12% in Oct 2011 as compared to Oct 2010.  The disappearance of the Cadillac DTS from the showroom made the primary difference in sales from last year; add in those 1.3K sales and this year would be flat to last year.  To keep some perspective, Oct 2010 was a strong month, up 15% from 2009.

The Cadillac SRX sales were the highlight, at 4.9K units for the month, up 12.7% overall or 17% per sales day.  CTS sales were strong although down somewhat from 2010 at 3.9K units for the month vs 4.2K last year.
