(PCNA), importer and distributor of the Porsche 911, 718 Boxster and Cayman, Panamera, Cayenne, and Macan model lines, today announced April 2018 sales of 5,570 vehicles. This represents a new all-time one-month retail record for Porsche sales in the U.S., surpassing the previous all-time high of 5,555 units set last November. It also marks a 0.7 percent gain over April 2017, which itself was a record month. Retail sales for January through April were up 7.0 percent from a year ago to 19,524 vehicles.

"The Porsche mix of two and four-door sports cars is getting a broad welcome from customers.
