Its purely the economy. A 2 seater sports car isn't a priority for people losing their jobs and 401Ks. I remember perusing the corvette forums when the Z06 was just released at a time when the economy was doing very well and dealers were marking it up $10K-20K with ample buyers.

I followed those as well for months...Dealerships (the smart ones) are now selling for up to 14% below MSRP.

Winter in the northern climates is not exactly a prime sales time for RWD 2 seat sportscars either.

The sales slump continues to mean good deals for consumers. Aaron Bragman, automotive marketing research analyst for IHS Global Insight in Troy, Mich., said large incentives such as zero-percent financing and rebates will continue well into 2009 as automakers try everything they can to boost sales

Toyota said it sold 141,949 vehicles in December, down from 224,399 a year earlier. Sales of the Prius hybrid dropped 45 percent as gas prices fell from their record highs in July.

Honda sold 86,085 vehicles last month, down from 131,792 a year earlier but up from 76,233 in November. Nissan. The month-over-month improvement was a trend seen by most automakers.

Nissan sold 62,102 vehicles — including Infiniti models — in the U.S. compared with 89,555 in December 2007. For 2008, Nissan U.S. sales dropped 11 percent.
