    Thumbs up Best Prices/places to buy Spyders - iMotorsports

    I recently bought a 2015 Spyder RT for around $20,000 and had it delivered to my door FOR FREE!
    I purchased through iMotorsports near Chicago IL , anyone else use them?
    if you have, do you know if these lower prices are offered yearly?
    I'm hoping the same happens for the 2016 models.. Then I can hand this one over to my wife

    Im in the process of getting one right now, just waiting for them to ship it to me. How long did it take to get to you once it was actually shipped and where are you? Did you get the base RT? i would have like the adjustible suspension and heated passenger grip options on the RTS but the black rims and little chrome farkles didnt do anything for me and for $3000 more i just could not go for it. I already spent more than i should have anyway

    I imagine they put out prices like that every year when they are trying to get rid of the last years models, just never know what they will have left at the end of the year.

    It seems like the lowest prices are normally present from mid September until end of October. I purchased my 2014 RT SM6 from a dealer in Texas for $17,499 last year. I ended up spending about $900 for shipping, but it was really worth the savings. I will be checking for some similar deals on the F3T next fall.

    I bought my 2015 RTS from them in March. I got a good deal back then but not quite as good as yours. Got to remember the prices come down after the newer model hits the showrooms. iMotorsports are great to deal with. Mine was hassle free.

    ....with your choice. If you are even a little bit handy and have some tools, you can do all sorts of fairly easy up-grades to your Spyder, for very little cost.....Speakers = $ 120.00----- floor boards = $ 35.00 ---- LED mirror trn sig lites = $20.00 --- LED around trunk edge = $ 25.00 -- etc., ......Mike

    comes with 4 speakers doesnt it? you talking about upgrading them? Where can you get floorboards for $35. I am getting a manual can you use floorboards with a manual? RT should have a heel toe shifter on them i think

    ...After you get yours, I think you find that at about 50% volume the OEM speakers begin to break up and get worse very quickly with further increase.!!!........I did a post on what I and " beadaholic " did with ours, that was a 100 % improvement for $ 120.00......With a Manual Trans you will have an issue with floor-boards.....I have an SE , so it was easy.......Mike

    It looks like there is a change from 2013, or maybe 2014. The 2013 base RT did not have rear speakers. It looks like from what I can find for specs the 2015 does as it includes psgr controls. The 2016 definitely does as the spec for it states 4 speakers and psgr controls. I don't know about the 2014.

    I bought my 2015 RTL from them the end of July. I live in Dorr Michigan about 3 hours from where they are in Chicago.
    I had talked to Jason on the phone and emailed him. We went to drop my son off at the airport to go on a mission trip and I told my wife I wanted to stop by their facility to look at the yellow Spyder so I could see what the color looked like in person.
    Well Jason was great, the price was the best I had found anywhere on line, and even though I didn't get it that day, I put a deposit on it and picked it up 10 days later.
    Those were the longest 10 days ever!!!

    The dealership is nice, an old Saturn dealer facility, Jason was awesome to deal with and he knew his stuff. I had an awesome exsperance purchasing from them and they have been great to answer any questions after. I would purchase there again in a heartbeat.

    I gotta say though, that was the most expensive mission trip I ever let my son go on! Sure is a lot of fun though!!

    Do yourself and everyone else a favor, and don't use the speakers on your motorcycle. No offense but no one else wants to hear your music, so keep it in your helmet with a Bluetooth com unit paired to a phone or other MP3 player! It will always sound better, and the world will thank you!

    riding your Spyder with all that loud music, not much fun for me,
    just like skiing down the mountain with music in your ears, for
    me it's all about concentration on what's ahead , just saying.

    The world we be out of luck most of the time i am afraid. What i love about the built in radio, i already have a BT helmet and listen to music on it, is the AM. Now i can spend the weekend riding without missing an Angel game, or the Kings for that matter

    i dont blast it by any means but its one of those things that once i started doing it i can't go back. I am not one for silence to begin with but after i tried riding with something playing in the background i dont think i could go back

    Well Jason was great, the price was the best I had found anywhere on line, and even though I didn't get it that day, I put a deposit on it and picked it up 10 days later.
    Those were the longest 10 days ever!!!

    The dealership is nice, an old Saturn dealer facility, Jason was awesome to deal with and he knew his stuff. I had an awesome exsperance purchasing from them and they have been great to answer any questions after. I would purchase there again in a heartbeat.

    I gotta say though, that was the most expensive mission trip I ever let my son go on! Sure is a lot of fun though!!
    I also dealed with Jason, he was helpful and put up with my constant emailing so i will leave a nice message about them, when i actually get it. I know what you mean about longest 10 days. i signed the paperwork probably 7 or so ago and it just shipped on Wed. and i am just dying for this driver to call and at least let me know when he will be out here.
