    Default NEW TO THE SITE AND BOAT BUYING - NEED HELP!

    Hey everyone.. I'm brand new to the site and it's my first post so sorry if I do anything stupid. I'm looking at purchasing an LSV or possibly an Elite-V. My local Moomba dealer is quoting me around 50K out the door which seems very high. Here's what it has:
    Indmar 325HP
    Factory Cruise (not P/P)
    Tower
    Racks
    Gravity III
    Stereo
    Appearnce Pkg
    Wake Plate
    Bimini
    Cover
    Tandem Trailer

    MSRP is about $47,900, and he's telling me $50,000 OTD. Seems high for an 07' this time of year. Sorry for the long post and thanks!

    seems high to me. Use the boat builder section on the moomba website to build one just like he is quoting you.
    Sounds like he is hitting you for full MSRP at year end and that even seems high for full MSRP. That boat should sticker for $43k unless there is something I am missing.

    What is an Elite-V? Seems high for an LSV, but not so high for an XLV.

    Yes, that is VERY high. Speced out it is about $45K total, and based on previous boat show pricing, it can be as little as $41.5K

    Look for another dealer.

    dave, it is a centurion.

    i hope you can work with your local dealer but that $$$ is high, especially for this time of the year.

    In my first post I said I hope I don't do anything stupid. We'll I already had. I told my dealer point blank he was too high and that wasn't the reputaion he had. They're really good guys. We were going back and forth and then realized that at some point we started talking about the XLV, not the LSV. That's the issue. All is better now and sorry to everyone for my mistake.
