What kind of pricing is everyone getting quoted on these Yellow machines. My local dealer in Gunnison UT is quoting me $6700 that seems kind of steep for Yellow plastic since he is selling the red/green for $6300 this is before tax & license. He also told me that it is a limited editon and that only 3000 will be made in this color. I find that hard to believe that Polaris will not continue this color. What does anyone know ?

I would prefer the Remington edition. Yellow plastic isn't worth that much more anyway. If they don't sell too good, they will probably lower the price down, because I doubt they cost the dealer anymore for it just being yellow. Its the same bike with just a different color. Dealerships are just seeing a way to make more profit. Its probably working too.

YO I'm here!!!!Yeah I figure it's just another way to PLUCK(excuse the pun LOL)some more money from us.I figure they will sell good, most of the feed back I have got is positive.Although I can't tell you, as I've not seen mine yet.To tell the truth, and I hate to admitt it but I didn't get a price from dealer yet.He always treats me good, and I trade work out with him.If I think he got me, I just make up for it the next time I do something for him,that way we are both just as happy as if we had good sence.

The Polaris dealer in town is selling them for 300 bucks more than his green ones(he has no red ones) and says that they are only making 2500.

Has anyone checked on the price of the yellow plastic to change over a red or green?

Shop around on the net. There is address that shows the actual dealer price but I have lost the link. I doubt the Yellow machine cost any more than the others they are just playing the supply and demand game. Wait to the middle/end of January when consumers are broke from X-mas shopping and hunting season has ended and the sorry , greedy, wallet-raping dealers will be hungry to sell ATVs! I live in Houston where there are over five dealers which increases competition. If there is only one dealer close it may be tougher to negotiate $. I have seen price differ as much as 10% from dealer to dealer. That is $600 bucks on a $6000 machine! Good luck and shop around.
