We were looking at a brand new 2018 Yesteryear golf cart tonight at the Villages Golf Car store. $22K. If you offer cash does TV golf car store ever negotiate on their prices, or are they set in stone like the houses?

I am not sure, but Streetrod makes a really great cart... you may want to check them out?

Thanks, we're going to check them out tomorrow. But I actually like the look of the Yesteryear better, especially with their new slanted front grill. To each their own, I guess :-)

Plus we bought a villa with only a 1 1/2 garage, so every inch of space counts and the Yesteryear is slightly shorter than the Streetrod.

Have a great time checking out the carts. I love all the golf carts Here! No matter what you choose it will be great fun!

You need to drive both. Streetrod drives so much better.

To actually answer the question you posted, no. not 1 penny.

Does Streetrod negotiate on price?

They look nice but they are not the ideal cart if you play golf

Yes they do negotiate. They will tell you they do not but you can get at least $500 off. I know from experience. Tell them you are going to shop at Carts and Clubs in Ocala. And Ocala will also negotiate.

1. I think they have reduced the horse power in the 2018.
REASON???-polution controls???????
2. RE: The Villages Golf Cart-our recent experience. If, you don't buy from them they will not give you an appointment for stuff like an oil change.
3. RE: Yester year and 22,000. We have the regular yamaha bought new in 2014. A golf cart for 22,000? You can buy a REAL CAR for that. It is a fancy LAWNMOWER.
4. AS TO A DEAL-it is almost AUGUST. You may want to check when the 2019 models come up. As to a take it of leave it-YOU HAVE THE SECOND OPTION. You have the right to shop around. I would, if I was shopping, get a list of SERIAL NUMBERS and year produced. Would you know a 2017 from a 2018?

I did not buy my cart from Villages golf cart and recently had my oil changed there plus they gave me a loaner cart.

Good points, thanks. You only go around once in life, so 22K for a golf cart is excessive. But we also own a motorcycle with sidecar, and some would say that's excessive too. We bought a smaller home so we would have money for the fun things in life. So we only have a 1 1/2 car garage and our one car will have to sit in the driveway. No room for a second car, so the cycle and the golf cart will fit inside the garage. Thus a splurge on a golf cart doesn't seen excessive to us. But to each their own. :-)

Have you seen the new Lux Golf Cart built by Streetrod?



http://https://www.streetrodgolfcars.com/

I haven't looked at golf carts since I bought a new Yamaha in 2011. What I remember is at the time a new Streetrod was $23,000 and a new Yesteryear from TV was selling for $11,000 to $13,000. Seems like a big jump in price for Yesteryear.

I remember a thread back then and Frank who owned a Site Rite golf cart shop and posted regularly on this website had recommended the Streetrod, he wrote "I have had the opportunity to work on and drive (both) models talked about the past few days and the finest production custom cart built is the StreetRod. This cart looks good, rides well & has an oil filtered, oil pumped engine built buy Kawasaki. This cart on a Club Cart frame gets my vote. They are not cheep but you do get what you pay for."

Exactly. Way too chummy a space for two guys. It is like the Waterfront Hotel. No Ballroom.
