Default Looks like I am joining the Formula Family

I am buying a 2007 400SS x 525's Hardtop and with all the goodies. I have been considering the 400 for a few years now I will soon be an owner. My wife and I went to the factory to see the boat last Monday. It is a demo boat that Formula had in Lake Tahoe.

It is being cleaned up at the factory and I should see it in a week or so. Too bad I wont be launching it until next spring as the weather here has turned for the cold. I only have a few pictures of it but it is identical the the brochure boat for 2007.

The factory tour was very eye opening too an unbelievable place to visit.

Very sweet, congratulation's & good luck with your new SS, it is a beautiful boat. Winter will be painful for you this year.... I will look to move in that same direction once I get out of the Fastech experience not sure when that will happen (my wife has a different time frame in mind)

nice toy! You are about 8 to 10 hours south of me. I'm still running the boat so you could at least try your new toy before winterizing it! It's warmer in your area than mine!

So go for it!Launch it! Take pictures! Post them! And THEN, you can store it!

Good luck!

Nice!!!

Does it make sense to buy a boat for you now, then let it sit for 4-6 months before you use it? Why not buy a boat next year instead so you don't get the depreciation without use?

We really want to launch it but then I would have to store it at my marina. $2700.00 / Winter heated. By not launching it and keeping it at the dealers lot shrink wrapped it cost me -0-.

By buying now in the fall it seems I am getting the best deals and financing on leftover 06's This happens to be a factory demo 07 that I dont think would be left in the spring. Plus they cut me a super deal on it too.

here are a couple more picts
