Well after MC finishes building my boat in March, i will be the owner of a 2007 X1, which I am stoked about... here are some lessons i learned during this process...
1. In this regonalized/monopolized dealer day and age, you really have to be happy with 2 or 3 different manufacturers and pit them against one another to get anyones best deal.
2. Buy at the boat show because you will typically get a 50 basis point cheaper note
3. Buy at the boat show for dealer incentives
4. Make sure and arrive at the boat show when the Manufacturers Rep is there.... I was lucky enough to deal directly with the VP (and part owner) of MC, who threw in approx $4,500 of free options from the factory to keep me from walking back over to Malibu...
5. Do research on the internet at forums like this
to figure out what is possible and what the right questions to ask are.. I imagine that this forum saved me 2-3k at least... thanks guys
