that was a pretty nice quad in dirt wheels, you know, that prototype one that they might make in limited numbers. why would someone try to sell a quad that would cost between 25 and 30 thousand dollars? imagine if you buy either a raptor, banshee, dS OR EX AND put the extra $$23,000 or so into a bunch of mods. would that prototype still be as good as the rest. can you imagine a banshee with over 20,000 dollars in mods???!!!!! it would rival dodge vipers at the drag strip. who in their right mind would shell out that much dough for an unproven quad.

these were just a few of my thoughts on that quad. please post any comments you have on the subject.

I haven't seen that issue, but if you sunk $20k into a Banshee it wouldn't "rival" vipers.

was ya talking about the vor cause if so that wasnt what they were going to charge for the finished product bacicly thats what it costs to make the prototype or what they will make the others to be like at a much cheaper price car manufactures do that with most of thier cars and i have seen prototypes cost as much as one million dollars but the finished product sells for 30,000 so bacicly the vor in the long run it wont cost 30,000 chances are they will probably be 10-15 thousand cause they work out all the bugs with the prototype and thats why it costs so much

Youve got to understand that there are people out there with mega bucks. they would not even consider it to be a problem to buy a $25000 quad that no one else is going to own. These are the same people that buy the f-50's, Maclarens and the like. ITs the limited numbers that get these people, money is no object...
