looks pretty cool, i love the windshields on these. real clean and low profile with the glass ran all the way to the edge of the frame rather than having the glass framed in by metal. (hope that made sense haha)

I think a variation of the old solid tower would look much cleaner though, ever since they ditched the illusion x the new towers just seem to look way to busy.

What would be cool is to get rid of the framing at the top edge of the windshield to remove it from your field of vision.

What is incredibly NOT cool is the MSRP on these bad boys. Just happened to see the MSRP on 2 of them yesterday that my local dealer has on order. 6 figures folks.........

Yikes Bruizza...

They are perty though.

Bruizza, 110? 120?

114k and 104k

When can we see one that isn't red?? They've been teasing this boat for over three months now... but it's always the same red boat. Is that the only one they've built??

It looks alot more attractive in white/accent of your choice.I don't care for the shade of red.It's a sharp looking boat.

Nice looking boat for sure. I would order it with few more contrasting colors for the interior to make it pop.

Anyone wanna buy a Sanger? lol That bow is awesome, the pickel forks just make so much since, tons of extra room. I also love the seats on the back, find myself sitting back there most of the time when parked. Overall a great looking boat, pretty sure there arent any wake boats that are worth 100k to me though.

Not for sure on this, but I think they are selling in the 70's- 80's. MSRP is 6 figures though.

Honestly... I really like it after seeing that white and black one. Best looking boat to come out of the Big 3 in years. The main cabin looks like a VLX, which is not a bad thing at all. But the bow and the sun pad are awesome. Notice how deep the bow is. I love the back seats too.

If pricing is similar to VLX, Malibu will sell a lot of these.

Does anyone pay MSRP for a new boat? My VLX MSRP was $94k, did not pay anything even close to this... I dont think anyone pays anything close to the MSRP. Dont see any drastic pickup in the economy coming next year, and the fuel prices continue to stay high. They (economists) are even saying fuel will continue to go up next year.

I would bet you could pick one up for much less than the MSRP. I agree with others, the red/black does nothing for me, the boat looks much better IMO with the lighter colors.

I was at my dealer today, they have a few on order, and they said the hull is the same as the VLX, not sure how much different the wake will be on this boat. According to them, the picklefork and 6" in added length are the main differences.

Just picked mine up for 75k with everything cept the fancy trailer wheels and tires....

^^^ that's a lot of money, but seems fair considering what X-25's are going for.

I assume that's with the Monsoon engine, and not an upgraded 6L, right?

We were at Waterski America today and got to see one.

That $10k more than the VLX, which seems about right.... a bargain compared to the X-25 boat show pricing of $93k.

^^^ Can you really get a VLX for $65K? If so, that's not bad, all things considered.
