Thanks to all for the input... One more question... If $175,000 is too high of a price ... What is the right price that I should ask???

Don't look at 8 months because boats don't move much over the winter. However you should be getting major action right now and if you aren't then you have to look at price. It's already been said but, custom power, no trailer, hatch scoops and no swim platform are some hold backs. 700 and bravos(xr's?) will be another question. Also you say it's the lowest priced TS, but it's also the oldest. I saw a 2001 listed for the same price with a myco trailer. That’s what a $10K upgrade? And there’s a 2001 listed for $169 with vortechs (another draw back), but a newer boat and lower priced. My rule of thumb is, if I am not getting serious interest then I am 5% or more above the current market. I am not trying to criticize your boat but since I just sold my 1997 TG and am now looking for its replacement this is what is going through my mind as a buyer when I look at it. Where did it go ? who bought it ? |

So he is now No Pipe Tiger / NPT |

It's all a bought price , we listed our Gun for almost 1 year at the same price as all the other comparable rigs and only attracted brokers and tire kickers.
In Sept of 06 not wanting to store 3 boats again for the Winter I dropped the price another 20k and had immidiate action. Three months later I handed over my Title to one happy new owner. As I have seen written in these threads before and it stands true,it's much harder to sell them then it is to buy them! Great looking rig good luck with your sale. |

I personally love the look of these boats, but they have no cabin, and when you get them up to WOT they feel like you are floating. I sm sticking with flat bottom boats for now. I had an 03' TG TS w/ 525's and I think the Top Guns have a pretty big cabin when setup with the extended cover girl. I also think they are rock solid at speed. Mine was not scary at all at 86-87 mph. I have a friend that had one that did over 100 mph and he was very happy with it at those speeds. IMHO Top Gun TS's are great handling boats. DK |

I was in a T/S gun at 86 and it was solid as a rock!!

Price Price Price... It may be worth every penny, but if no one is jumping at it, then in this market it no longer is worth that price. You can "sell it" or you "can see what you can get for it"
There has been quite a few guns that have sold over the last few months, as Wild Warrior said he dropped 20k to get action. |
