Anyway, being an expensive coupe... holding 2nd place (by an unusual margin) is an excellent mark!

Your argument assumes the AMG version is released simultaneously with the regular versions.

The 2003 SL55 was released early on, I think just a month or two ish after the 500.

Not at the same time, but before fall of 2002 which would be the regular time for a 2003 model to be introduced. Trust me Micheal Jordan had nothing to do with SL55 sales. MJ is in a Hanes commercial now driving a DB9 Volante, but I seriously doubt the rich are going to run out and start buying them any faster they they already are (or aren't right now).

Re: /////AMG production count for US market
If one of you can prove that June 2003 did not have the highest month of sales, I'll concede the point.
J/K ... Thanks Guys!

I think it was the E55/SL55 (the supercharged 55 engine more like it).
