Scoota
I thought the dealer I bought my 150 from was was honest and gave me a decent deal. I could not deal with anyone closer at the time because of a limited selection in June. Once I sold the 150, I started checking a few dealers closer to me. One gave me a price of $5800 and the other was $5100. The only trouble was he wanted the money up front before ordering, and by the end of the year. I talked to my original dealer and he said he thought he might be able to match the $5100 deal, but wasn't sure of pricing yet. I told him to let me know because I trusted him. I just happened to be looking at different dealers and saw the 2012 advertized for $4999. It was the color I wanted and it is on his showroom floor now. I called him and he offered it to me for $4300 + tax and registration. I called my original dealer back and he told me that it was a good deal and he couldn't beat it. I was concerned the 2013 would be quite a bit more with shipping and all, plus I wouldn't be sure of a delivery date. Also there are no major changes between model years. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. I'm going to look at the 2012 this week, and will buy it it it looks good.
