I had a 2012 RT-S, and had no problems. I have been told (in 2013) that the 2012 has the least issues, and is the best RT to buy.

:agree: Of the "First Edition" RTs; the 2012 model year was the best of the bunch! :2thumbs:

Waited till bugs subsided, and purchased a 2012 RT-S SM5.. REALLY HAPPY...NO problems. Would buy another 2012 today, if I was in the market for a new Spyder. Still have my 2009 GS SM5. Truly happy with it, also. Ryde.

I would recommend jumping on the deal for a 2012 RTS. Currently, the major opinion is that the 2012 is the best of the crop of the original RT's.

Thanks for the replys folks I will be doing the math tomorrow and if it works then I will probably commit to the deal. Again thanks to all that replied :bowdown:

Only issue I've had with my 2012 RT-SE was when I bought it, it had been sitting on the show room floor for about 10 months. The dealer got it all prepped ok, but the seat latch was kind of stiff. As a result, the switch that told the nanny the seat was down sometimes didn't engage. This resulted in a number of "passenger detected" warnings on the monitor. The fix was to spray the seat latching mechanism with WD-40 then to slam the seat a bunch of times. It is fixed now. This was real minor.

I have over 26000 trouble free miles with my 2012 RT.Grab it.To date 2012 the best Spyder to have.I certainly am going to hang onto mine.
Hopefully the 2014s will be absolutely trouble free .

The 2012 RTS & RSS sm5 are by far the best machines to own to date. The 2014 looks to be a winner time will tell.i
