Thumbs up VERY nice Top Gun for sale

Saw this on powerboat listings:

http://www.powerboatlistings.com/view/10351

I have seen this boat very close up at our poker runs. Anyone want an extremely well cared for boat - look hard at this one. Stunning in person, the paint is awesome.

I just picked myself off the floor
It does look like a beautiful boat but $119k for a 1994. I can not see that boat selling for then $75-$80k in this market. Sorry just my opinion and I just sold a completely redone and painted 93 Cafe so I feel I have decent feel for the market. Hopefully for him I am wrong and sold mine to cheap.

As much as it hurts to say it....You are 100% correct.

As beautiful as that boat is, it would be a miracle to find a buyer that would be willing to pay more than 75K for that boat.

It looks really nice, but it does seem way over priced given that it's not a TS, updated almost 7 years ago, and only has 500's and XR/bravos with 250 hrs.

I had my 1994 Cigarette TOP GUN for sale with new 502 Dart Block Supercharged roller engines that produced 600hp each at 5500rpm. It was for sale for over 2 years. I have less than 50 hours on the motors and the boat has always been ran in an inland freshwater lake. I was asking $79,000 and I had 2 phone calls and not one person actually came and looked at the boat. I did not have XR's, but the boat is in excellent shape. If that boat sales for what they are asking, I'll be very surprised. I'm glad no one bought my boat, I decided to keep it. My gain, buyer's loss.

I'll be keeping mine forever. They can use it as my coffin when I die.

Just to be very clear... I am not being negative about this particular boat. It is an extremely nice piece......but the market has been set and it's most likely never going to go back up.

I agree. I don't think the market will back it up. It is a very nice looking boat.
