With the 10th anniversary edition past history, BRP might take notice of how some of the two wheeled manufacturers do a limited edition model for sale on a yearly basis. Just food for thought.

They should, But I don't think it gets people to buy em like myself. I think the spyder is special enough and keeps improving , the ryker will probably take off quickly on sales.
I had an L.E. car once and found out it was three gold badges, that was it............Limited = three special badges-stupid me.

L.E. are nice but it seems to me it just more $ for the same foundation, maybe some good talking at a fuel stop.

Yes I do have a Limited RT = stitching on back rest and I didn't buy it for that, I like the color!

Thanks for the share - good looking Indians for sure.

Interesting stuff...those limited editions.

I had an limited editon (cant even remember the name) Subaru Forester. Got nothing back for it when I traded it in.

I have only heard of two people that bought the BRP 10th Anniversary, limited edition Spyder. Going to be interesting to see if they gain any value. I am thinking not. The Premier editions GS and RTS were both a joke as far as extra value. I also had a Premier RTS.

I bought my 2018 RT Limited 4 weeks ago NOT because it was a Limited, but because I was looking for a Spyder, the 2018 price was reduced by over $5500 due to manufacturer rebate to the dealer, and it was simply a good deal financially. I could care less if it was a "special edition" or whatever. And I would never buy a vehicle as an "investment" anyhow. There are many, many better and safer ways to invest money. I'm retired, and already own a car. I'm a realist. My Spyder is an expensive "Big Boy Toy". Geez...it sucks gas on the Interstate at 75 MPH worse than my car does at the same speed. :roflblack:

There is a difference between using the word Limited to designate a model and using the term Limited Edition to indicate a short run. The F3L is not a limited run and the Indian JD is not one either. Four year running does not constitute a limited run. Kinda like a mattress sale.

The limited we referenced refers to the special 10th anniversary edition. Black/Gold and with special badging. Your profile shows 2018 RTL. BRP made the Anniversary Editons through special order and you had to wait months to get them.
