    It would be nice if the unveiling would include a better dealer network model, better customer service, and a new lineup!

    I mean, based on my personal opinion BRP couldn't power it with anything smaller then the 998 that was in the RS. So there is no savings in engine. You would at least need a 5 speed manual which they could again use from the old RS but I'm sure it hasn't gotten any cheaper to manufacture. So, no $ savings in the engine or transmission. That means you need to find savings in the chassis, plastic, electronics, etc. I'm sure there is savings available in those things but how much really? The last year the RS was produced it was selling for $15K and apparently no one was buying. If you want to compete with other brands you'd have to have an entry level Spyder in the $10K range. I'm not sure BRP is willing/able to do that. I suppose this is a great topic for another thread...."what is an entry level Spyder?"
    2017 entry level was a base F3 starting at $16,999 if I recall the price properly.

    I'm betting they announce a new line of tires. Then we can start a whole new series of tire discussions.

    They've got a 976cc Vee-Twin in their Commanders that would also do it!

    Really hope that CanAm has come up with some new and/or improved models that knock it out of the ballpark. Maybe a bigger trunk, thicker plastic, bigger side storage compartments, bigger engine, better tires. Bigger , better service network for those who do not do their own maintenance would score huge.
