Baltic Car Sales Plummet

Car registrations in Latvia have dropped by a factor greater than eight since 2007 with only 3,456 new cars registered the first eleven months of 2009. The good news, say car dealers, is the fact that all but one of the cars registered were Hummers, Porches, Jaguars, Mercedes Benz S-class sedans, Lamborghinis, or Ferraris. The exception was a Toyota Corolla, registered for transit to Belarus.

  2. The first sentence in this story is absolutely true. The second and third sentences are likely true.
