Did I get a good deal, or ripped off?
« on: May 16, 2011, 11:32:11 AM »
Greetings forum!

We are the proud new owners of a brand new 2009 Kymco Agility 50. 

Since we did not do much price comparison, I wanted to know if the following deal was a good one, or bad.

Scooter $1299.99
Freight to dealer $160
Setup/Prep $75
Doc fee $50

Total before taxes, about $1585. 

Prior to buying a scooter, I kinda figured all of thoese extra fees would be included in the MSRP.  On the other hand, it was the only new agility nearby, so we pulled the trigger.

I guess it depends on were you are from and the price of scoots. here in michigan u.s.a I payed 1500 for a new scoot back in 2007 . with no extra fees.

thats within $100 of what i paid for my 2008 off the showroom floor, my dealer had all the freight & setup charges included in the price but I'd say you made a good purchase. the quingi(sp) scoots(chinese generic basically) sell for around 1500 here as well and they're complete crap. the agility is a great scoot so for a new bike you did pretty well  :)
'08 Agility 50, 72cc BBK, Naraku HS High Speed Variator, some clutch tweaking, UNI filter with homemade cold air setup, Leo Vince Handmade Titan exhaust, lots of random upgrades i'll never be able to remember.. the look on people's faces when i put a knee down through a curve makes it all worthwhile

Rest easy. You didn't get ripped off and you have a great scooter. Congrats!

Never buy new.  You will always loose out.
Never finance your ride either.
But, it is still less expensive than a car, so...

looks good to me! Im from the uk and brought a 2005 (55 plate) for £25 it was a spares repairs and the owner thought it was seized. 4 hours later we had a new frame and the bike was running good! I was proud to pay so little and get a good deal!

That's very much in line with what we would sell that one for. As good a deal as you're going to get, new. And, you have a 2 year warranty!
