Honda f-12x
Hey Lethal and Pilot----I'm new to the forum scene too, but have had PWC's since 1996. My 2 stroke Polaris's crapped out last Summer, ad too expensive to repair so I'm shopping.
I stopped by the Honda dealer here in SC, and he quoted me $7299 for the 2007 (brand new) F-12x GPScape, plus trailer and tax. Total price tag will be close to $8600. I really don't need the GPS, but am not wild about the orange color (they are sold out of the blue). The only other PWC I am looking at is the Kawasaki STX-15F. Comparable in engine, reputable name, and the price for a 2009 is $8100 with trailer.
I like Honda too---my wife drives an Acura, I have a 90hp Honda on my pontoon, and have a Honda pushmower too, so I'm sold on Honda, but for a 2 year older PWC am I payong too much? I don't plan on selling it, so I think I might be worrying too much about the resale value.
My dealer also mentioned the 3 year extended plan for $1200. Not sure I'll do it, but he said the 100 hour service was $900 (??) so it sort of pays for itself. Any thoughts?
