Default Different levels of Reconditioned / remanufacured carts

There are different levels of reconditioned carts. You can get one reconditioned / remanufactured from a local dealer like Golf Cart Connection or many others with their warranty or you can get a remanufactured one from the original factory such as Club Car. Cub Car remanufactures their carts in two different levels Silver and Gold. The Gold carts are remanufactured to current year Club Car standards and include from Club Car a new serial number which shows the year of remanufacture the same as a new cart. The warranty is 3 yrs bumper to bumper from Club Car (not the dealer you buy it from) valid at the dealer you purchased it from or any club car dealer. Point is its Club car standing behind the warranty not a local dealer. The silver level doesn't include the new serial number indicating the year of purchase ( just like local remanufactured carts) but again the warranty is a warranty from Club Car. The level of remanufacture may not be as great but the difference between the two levels isn't obvious from reading their information.

I purchased my gold level cart from Masters Golf Carts on 441 and have been very pleased with their service and also saved a lot amount of money. My thinking was no one could remanufacture better then the original factory and if their putting and new serial number on it with the current year - that indicates a they are sure its as good as new.

One major difference between getting a remanufactured cart from Club Car is the motor will be stock and not high speed. It will not exceed 19.6 mph just like a new cart from Club Car.
