Top 10 Best Selling Cars of 2010
Car sales made a strong rebound in 2010, with almost all car manufacturers seeing a decent increase in sales.
Of the major car companies, Toyota was the only one that saw its sales decrease - mainly attributed to its recall fiasco which caused consumers to question the safety of the brand.
GM ended the year as the number one seller of vehicles in the US.
Ford, having more vehicles than Toyota, reclaimed its No. 2 sales spot.
The car brand that saw the highest increase in sales was Buick - up 52%, while Smart sales fell the furthest with a 60% decline.

There is a new online car buying service called Roadster, available only to California residents, which I highly recommend you try - especially if you hate the stress of haggling with a car salesman. They provide an expert concierge who negotiates the price of the car and delivers it to your home with zero hassle - you never have to interact with a dealership.
