Would like the upgraded seats with moveable armrests as well.
The Villages Golf Cars has them, but they are outrageously expensive!

Sunshine Golf carts in Ocala. Bought my Star 4-5 years ago, $5000 less than Villages Golf Cart quoted. & yes, they pick up & deliver in TV for service. Great place. I think Tom is still the manager: 352) 355-3254

The 160 ah battery goes about 65 miles. Do you want a 85 mile battery if you won’t travel 85 miles? It seems to me a 100 ah (40 miles) to 160 ah(65 miles) is the sweet spot.

You won't get 65 miles out of a 160 Amp in The Villages.
You'll be lucky to get 65 miles out of a 210 Amp.
Don't listen to all the nonsense about how the 210A goes "90+ miles". Yeah, with one person in it, driven at 10-15 mph.
I have a 210 Amp Star. I've never seen 65 miles.
The 210A (at least in the 2 seater) will usually come programmed for about 25-26 mph. Faster than allowed in a golf cart, but it can be turned down.
