Not mine.
Someone was talking about buying one of these.

A person could about buy a new Nomad for that price.

You can buy a new Vaquero for $14,500.00 here. :)

Greg Wilson was toying about one for his wife.

**glwilson** · 08-04-2011, 08:40 PM

Yes I was. The new Viper-Red touring model came in today.

I have not written the check yet...

Have you guys seen the list price on the RT model? Wow! BRP is very proud of these things!! Geez...

Actually, as much as CJ and others may want to throw jabs at them, they are pretty cool vehicles. No... they are not motorcycles; which is where I believe most of the "rub" comes for those bad-mouthing them.

For me, I like all kinds of sport-vehicles and certainly Can-AM Spyders are exactly that. I love dune-buggies, sand-rails, snow-mobiles, motorcycles, go-carts, and the Can-AM. Sorry, but I think they are really a great vehicle. I think they are pretty fun to ride. I have not sold the bike. Not so sure I could ever give-up having a two-wheel vehicle.

Just saying... to clear the air around here. ;)

Well congrats Greg. I take it you are the new owner of a Spyder..... or going to be?

cactusjack · 08-04-2011, 10:35 PM

Here's the sporty red one...

**Kawhead** · 08-05-2011, 01:39 AM

I'd like one of these things for my wife. She ain't gonna saddle a motorcycle by herself, not even if it's a HD.

Her standards ain't as high as mine or she wouldn't've married me! ( I reckon I said that right.) ::)

I like these better than a trike.

Maybe it's a short guy perspective??? Who the "H" knows???

Trip,

As mentioned, I haven't written the check yet... I have a hard-time pulling the trigger on larger purchases; and this is no exception.

At this moment, it could go either way. My wife loves the thing though and would like to drive it.

CJ and Loafer... just you never mind!!

Well Greg...seriously.... keep us posted. I really think that if you do the deal, it would be cool. I've always lived by the motto... "a man has to do what a man has to do".

So, if it's something you want to do, do it and don't let anyone sway you.

**GIBBY** · 08-05-2011, 06:56 AM

CJ, can you get lowering kits for those things

Sorry Greg, couldn't pass on that one.

Real funny Mike... real funny

If I get one, it will likely be a second vehicle that my wife will drive and I'll keep my bike. I cannot see me without a bike of some sort.

Don't forget the optional sunscreen dispenser!
