• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Pricing question

I've been looking for awhile at getting a 2015 Spyder. I'm new to this and have never purchased a motorcycle or rec vehicle. I've been to several dealerships and have left each one very frustrated. I'm used to knowing everything about a car when I go purchase one. MSRP, Invoice, Rebates, Incentives, and such. However with the Spyder, I cannot for the life of me find anything other than MSRP (and the current rebate posted at BRP). In addition, NONE of the dealers will even discuss price if it isn't MSRP.

Do people just blindly pay full MSRP + fees for Spyders? Is this normal?

BTW, I'm looking at getting a F3-S with Electric shift.
Thanks
Ron


Ron,
When I bought my 2011 RS-S SE5 listed for $19,660.00 + tags, tax, setup, and delivery $940 + extras (helmets, ext. warranty 3 yrs., two GPS holders, covers, and other stuff) the total $3,625.00. The MSRP total was $24,225.00. I gave $20,000 cash. That was in July of 2011.

The key thing is to be patient. There will always be good deals around, but you may have to wait for it. I purchased my 2014 RT in September. I am the kind of guy that normally would buy used, and let someone else take the depreciation. But considering I purchased at over $5k below msrp, I could not beat that deal. I could not even find a used spyder for what I purchased my new one for. Also, for the right deal, don't be afraid to travel if you have to.
:agree:
Especially with the F3 being the new model out. When I bought the 2013 RT-S in 2013 (the new frame and blacked out rims came out), I was lucky to get it MSRP with the vented windshield, adjustable wind deflectors, Bluetooth doggle and trailer hitch installed. Plus they took my old 2010 RT on a good payoff. It is all about negotiating. Don't expect big rebates from the manufacturer because the riding season has just started and manufacturer's know that if a someone wants a new vehicle in that time of year, they will pay for it. Right now BRP has the extended warranty and their financing with Sheffield just dropped on loan APR interest for 2015 units, while last years models have a few thousand $ rebates so that is the best deal you will see from BRP until the end of the year.

Good luck!
 
Hm... Post didn't post

Sorry, I had posted a response but it never showed up.

I wanted to thank everyone for their advice. I really appreciate it.

I did pull the trigger with a local dealer after they decided to play ball. Got them down to a reasonable price.


I just wanted to make sure the thread was complete. Didn't want to leave anyone hanging. ;)
Thanks all
Ron
 
Must be an "East Coast" thing!
