The Fastest and Slowest Selling Cars on the Market

The quicker a car moves off the lot, the less negotiating room you have with the dealer. Slow moving cars tend to sell at a much deeper discount.
This month's biggest mover: the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
The redesigned Grand Cherokee is selling quickly, with just nine days on lots (a positive sign that Chrysler is getting back on track.)
The Ford Fiesta also sold quickly, but more so in hatchback configurations. The new Buick Regal just made the list, selling in just over two weeks.
The average number of days it took to sell a new 2010 or 2011 ticked up one day from 55 in June to 56 in July.
May's average was 50 days.
On the Losers list, the slow-selling Cadillac CTS SportWagon and the soon-to-be-deceased Mercury Milan Hybrid.
