Default banshee question

A dealer near me has two 06'banshees brand new white one and the 50th anniversary still in the crate.Would I have to pay the list price or how cheap could I get one of them?It seems there are still some 06'banshees out there new in the dealers.I've never bought from a dealer before.

You should get a substantialy lower price - I'm talking about saving thousands of dollars. They really want to get rid of them, and regardless of what the lying salesman says, I'd be surprised if they wouldn't pay you to haul them off! One thing you need to ask yourself is "why do they still have them?" Evidentially nobody wants a Banshee anymore.

u should get them cheaper, they may be brand new in the crate but their still a few years old so the book value automaticaly drops. you may even get them both for the price of what one would have been new...

would 3500 be a good geuss?I wonder why no one wants a banshee because there is at least 3 dealers in my area that have 1 or 2 06'banshees.

People don't want Banshees because 4 strokes are taking over the world!

Idk I'am a devout two stroke fan thought to get a four stroke but thought better of it.Even though they are gone now there is nothing like the acceleration and pure thrill of speeding on a two stroke.

I like 2 strokes, too, or better yet I used to like 2 strokes. Evidentally you have not ridden a 450, Raptor 660 or 700. Stock for stock they have about the same acceleration and excitement as a Banshee, with less headache.
