Personally I think it's a no brainer!
I would definitely go with the used.

I'd go used. Check how much warranty as well. I just bought a used 2015 with about the same miles. And same price. And I called canam dealer and I have warranty till 2020. So that was a huge bonus.

Personally I would go new, so you can teach it properly ;) Nothing like riding out of the shop on a brand new Spyder, I have done it 5 times lolol. So if your budget allows??? go new.

If you can find out why the used one is for sale with so little mileage on it, then it would probably be ok,
as long as it is not one that has caused someone a few headaches and has given up on it.
Just my opinion.

New. It's worth the extra bucks in my opinion.

This is priceless IMHO. Knowing that no one has done stupid things to it before you got it.....

Don't forget about the sales tax on top of the 15K for the used one.

Never mind just saw New Hampshire doesn't have sales tax,must be nice.

I'd go used and save the 3,000 bucks. That's just me!

If it was my decision I would get the VIN from the used F3-S and check with a dealer to see what service has been done on it. Would also see how much warranty is left. If :yes:everything checks out to your satisfaction I would go with used and save $3K. That extra money will buy a lot of Farkles!!

$3K buys a lot of farkles. A good deal if the VIN and history of the used one check out.

Get the the new one and have them make the extended warranty part of the deal!

from what I read they are basically the same. The used one with only 2,900 miles is still new and much cheaper. So if it is a budget thing that would be the way it go. If money is no problem and you like new from a dealer...go new. If it is opinionns you want mine is to go with the almost used one, you can put on a lot of miles with the savings....:thumbup:

I ran the vin and it came back clean.the 3000 miles service was just done.it is in excellent condition.it is owned by a older gentleman that can't ride anymore.that is why it is up for sale.
do you guys think it's worth 15k
extras are the pipe and windshield

Check the vin# to see has or had this problem. I would not buy one with that problem or any 2015 F3.
