Leftover 2008... 30% +- a couple off MSRP would be considered 'good'.

How or where can I get MSRP? Dealer states invoice is about $41,000 and will sell for that.

I bet he would sell it for $41K.

Here is one to use for comparison, see if you can talk the deal down a few thousand more.

And another one for reference. Psuedo MSRP listed on here.

Invoice can vary greatly depending on the options list -- particularly when you start talking big $ options like the stainless arch and wakeboard tower.

There is a "window sticker" just like a car. Ask for him to fax it to you or see it. On there will be an MSRP.

Then - there are also factory-to-dealer rebates to consider since it is a leftover model.

However the discounts add up - find comparables.

This is entirely unscientific but I know that an '08 260 with the 8.1 can be had for $50k under the right circumstances. $41k seems high.

That price is high. Almost pulled the trigger on that exact boat last spring. Except it had the wake board tower. Has quite a few other options as well. It was not an order, but a boat the dealer owned on the lot. We were at $35,500 + tax. Just as a point of reference for you.

Heh...yep, my bad.

I don't think I'd put it as "high". Not a steal, but not high.

I traveled 300 miles each way to get the right deal on my boat. Found it on the internet.

Received this email today from my dealer. It might be worth giving them a call or check their website at gainesvillemarina.com. They have 3 new H220's and a 220SS listed. I have had nothing but top notch customer service from them so far, so this was a bit of a disappointment...


DON’T BUY A NEW OR USED BOAT WITHOUT CALLING US FIRST!

Gainesville Marina will no longer be the Four Winns dealer for the Atlanta and Northern Georgia boating area. Effective immediately we are offering all remaining new Four Winns inventory at or below FACTORY INVOICE.

We have just under $1,000,000 in Four Winns inventory to liquidate. Time is of the essence in order to get the best choices. This offer ends when all boats are sold or April 30th whichever occurs first.

Don’t wait. Hurry, the Four Winns factory will be picking up all remaining unsold Four Winns on April 30th to distribute to other Four Winns dealers. Never before has this scale of a discount been offered. It is a true once in a lifetime opportunity.

Call one of our Sales Consultants today at 770-536-2171 to find out what models we have left and a factory invoice price.

See you soon,

Gainesville Marina
2145 Dawsonville Hwy
Gainesville, GA 30501
