    Default I guess I am gonna wait another year

    I know you will be shocked by this, but I am very unimpressed with the "new" offerings for the coming model year. It seems that I am always left waiting for next year to see if they are gonna make a performance spyder. Let the countdown to the 2018 unveiling (or should I say "the next big disappointment") begin.

    Just sayin'............
    Three in the garage, and I think I can fit at least one more in.....and then we will have to build another garage.
    The roads in NY are so bad that I am glad we bought a Ryker Rally

    Just sayin'............

    Default $ 24,929 !!!!!

    IMHO, BRP is pricing themselves out of the market. It would be one thing if their product was Flawless but we know that's not the case. You can actually buy an entry level Mercedes Benz for less than the LTD models of the F3 and RT ......... ....... I think that says something ..... Mike

    Was wondering how you were going to take this one. BRP seems to be making a technical mistake by not appealing to everyone in the market. It was the RS purchasers that got this whole thing going.

    The other issue--IMO--is they are once again pricing people out of the market. This has now become a consideration for a lot of people.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I agree. There are the other threads dealing with the RS and ST models falling by the wayside.
    I'm hoping they are going to bring back the RS and ST or similar models after taking a year to redesign them properly.
    We all know what happened to the 2013 RT where they put the Twin engine in a Triple frame. But I'm starting to sound like a broken record.
    If it ain't broke, don't break it.
