1997 gtx

[JBoyle997]

Hey Guys,

I sold my 1996 GTI at the end of last summer. I'm looking for a new ski, i found a 1997 GTX in GREAT shape, runs perfect..they say.. for 3500 non-negotiable. Is that a good price? My GTI wasn't fast enough but i loved it, i notice that you guys seem to all be in favor of the 97 GTX with the 787. I'm real excited about it but i'm wondering if the price is a little to much. Thanks, JB

96 GTX on a nice trailer is $2500. (Even with a new engine)

NADA has it listed for between $1730 and $1935 with cover and 1 place trailer. I think a more realistic price is about $2K. Any upgrades on it?

No upgrades, just a new seat..

pass. It's way over priced. (unless you are down in Australia)

Ok. Thanks guys

I'm looking to spend around 3 Grand, if you guys have any suggestions on a type of ski let me know. I've been looking on craigslist and some local dealers not much luck. I want something reliable, everything is either overpriced or beat. I'm in new jersey so if anyone is selling on this forum let me know. I checked out the sales section but didnt find anything. Thanks guys

That's a 95XP Limited, I know because I just bought one, I paid $1600.00 and thought I got a deal, mine does have a new SBT premium engine with 1 year left on the warranty. It's real rare only 500 were made and only one per dealer.

spend 2 grand if you can, cause anything you put in the water, you will spend extra money on, when i buy a used ski or boat, right off the bat, i expect to spend at least another couple a hun, battery, extras, etc .. btw, i think sabr has a ski for sale with a new motor ....

 

[SabrToothSqrl]

I like the ski I rebuilt so much... I plan to keep it lol.... For now...

 

[JBoyle997]

Sabr if you ever have anything thats good and reliable i would be more than happy to take a ride out to PA keep me posted
