Am I missing something here?
The black and gold is a special Anniversary model - as displayed at the homecoming - order by October. Built only against orders.
The 2018 model range will be introduced as usual around September.
- who knows what improvements or changes or colours etc etc

Exacly how much have you had to spend on your 2014, or better yet, how much has your warrantee saved you since you had yours? I have a 2015 RT Limited, and now after 1 1/2 years of ownership, and 17,000 miles of service, plus farlkles, it is just about perfect in what I expect a ride to be. IF I bought a new one, I'd have to start over ................... and who knows, maybe a new one wouldn't be as good as this one has been. It sounds like you really like the color of yours, and I personally think the Black and gold would get old after a while. Not getting a black and gold Trans Am was the smartest thing I ever did, my all white one was just great. Anyway, good luck with your choice, if you want to dress up your 14, get a wrap for it. You can take the wrap off up to 7 years with no damage to the paint and make it something else if you'd like.

BRPs website shows what appears to be gold laden ghetto looking bikes. The $500. is an actual set of gold teeth and fuzzy dice to
complete the ensemble. Yea...I'm going to buy an unknown $30,000 machine so I can get $500. in "free" stuff. I would like to meet the people who looked at this "deal" and bought it, I have swamp land in Florida for sale.....DISCOUNTED.

Bob, when I saw the bikes at the Homecoming I was not impressed. Most people weren't either. After the unveiling, about 80% of the people left the tent to go back to their hotel.
The next night, I was able to get a really close look at them and I still wasn't impressed. The gold, to me, makes the bikes look cheep, especially the wheels.
My advice to you, is to wait until you can see it in person before you buy.

Aren't those Spyders mid-season releases 2017 models with the 10th anniversary badging and colour only? I don't think there was ever any mention of them being 2018. I could be wrong. But if you want something new,,,, I would wait to see what the 2018 will bring! Plus,,, you will buy this one now and next year you will be able to get that colour on any model. Look at what they did on the 2011 RTLtd. I was told that the pearl white was reserved for the limited only. One year later they had that colour on everything.

2018s... That is how they are identified on BRP's website.

Bob are you thinking F3L or RT?
Since you like your orange RT so much, get the '18 special edition F3L and keep your RT, too!
Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't!

hey bob don't let people talk you out of it. if you like it, get it. if you read it right just order it from your friend, and tell him that if it looks like your going to get screwed, your going to cancel the deal. i am sure they will agree

Steelers are Black and Yellow, the Black and Gold would be the Saints. Put a couple flore de lis (spelling?) on the sides and you may have the key.
