I don't mean to keep bothering you guys for opinions but I suppose I'm also looking for help in making a decision, finally, whether or not to get a Busa. I am considering five at the moment,
an '00 we already discussed with a lot of mods, 166rwhp etc and new silver paint, quite pristeen with 15K on it for 7K, plus me flying down to get it or having it shipped sight (in person) unseen.
an '00 stocker with 6K on it in the same price range
an '01 with 8K and minor mods also in the same price range
an '06 at a dealer with 300 miles at around 9K+ or,
a new LE from a dealer back east crated and shipped for 10,600, a real deal compared to CA LE prices.
All but the 06 with 300 miles are too far to see them in person and all but one are in snow areas which means I would have to have them shipped. The one down south I might just fly down and ride it back...for the adventure of it if nothing else, IF I decide on that one.
So, all you experienced Busa owners, what strikes you as (the) deal, and thanks.
