And rumor has it (from a BRP rep) they did not get the orders they anticipated on the 10th Anniversary model????????

I'm not at all surprised. They seem to think that painting the wheels gold is going to make people flip out! These are not collectors items, they're something to ride. Give us something different like performance or technology upgrades, not the same exact bikes with different paint and badging.

Hi Alaska,
Re: Am thinking that Anniversary editions will not have increased value. Still a bit unhappy over the "Premier Edition" fiasco in 2008 and owned a 2010 RT "Premier Edition." When it came trade in time--nobody cared.

Pet rocks are pretty 'rare' nowadays; anyone think that they are worth more than the rock laying alongside of the road?

But does anyone really want an entry level Spyder? I guess it depends on your definition of entry level?
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?"

They have SEVERAL engines that would work in an entry-level Spyder...
The 600 ACE is currently in the snowmobile line-up.
They've got a 976cc Vee-Twin in their Commanders that would also do it!

BRP is looking at this very hard. They know the greatest barrier to entry is price for the younger generation.

The 30th anniversary badge on the back of my 2005 Goldwing did nothing to enhance its market value.

Unless they do a turbo I could care less about the colors.....
Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!
-
Yeah...i sort of hope there aren't too many big changes!
There is a Chamgaign 2017 RT-S sitting at the dealers that has my name on it....
😁😁
