funny you ask.



i bought my '03 interceptor last x-mas eve.



merry x-mas to myself..hehe.



anyways,

dec & jan are slow around these parts, not to mention, the following year models are usually on the floor by that time. so yeah...that's a good time to buy.



i bought my '03 interceptor for 500 below msrp. i didn't want the hassle and i wanted silver...and ONLY silver. ('02 didn't have silver)



if you have to have a BLACK '04 interceptor, you might have some trouble bargaining. if you don't care... and a red or silver one is okay by you, go get last year's model ('03).



that x-mas eve, they offered me without haggling the '02 ABS for $8800... 1200 off msrp (10k)



who knows how much more i could have got off with a little haggling?



good luck.

oh yeah



HRCUSA and that other dude talking about shipping/handling/freight charges had great advice.



re: nweaver's side mounted radiator blurb,

it is true, in hot weather it can run umm... hot. and if you're put putting around in urban hot weather stop & go traffic, the fan will kick in.



like he said...overheat NO, just hot.

oh yeah,

i commute with it daily,
