During the first half of 2013, PCNA has delivered 21,309 vehicles in the U.S., for an increase of 30 percent over last year (16,450) – which was a record-setting year.

The recently-launched Boxster and Cayman models also had strong months with 811 units sold – up 66 percent compared to last year.

"This first half of the year has been impressive on a number of fronts," said Detlev von Platen, President and CEO, Porsche Cars North America, Inc.

In the context of an improving economy, we're encouraged to continue this momentum with a persistent cadence of new model launches this year."

Sales of the flagship 911 line are up 10 percent during the model's 50^th-anniversary year, as Porsche anticipates the launch of the recently-announced 50^th Anniversary edition, and the Turbo, Turbo S and GT3 variants this fall. Inventory of the Panamera line is still extremely low, with the refreshed 2014 line just months away from launch.
