Hi guys,

I've been dealing with golf car sticker shock since we moved here....about 8 months ago. I just can't swallow buying an "off the truck" golf car for $10K. I'd like to get a 2021...but I want to pay less. Is there a way to get one from out-of-area for less or is trying to pay significantly less sorta like wishing unicorns can run free up and down Morse avenue? Thanks for any tips you can share :)

When you buy a cart it has a base price on it & it’s pretty much the same anywhere, all the options you want jacks up the price. Even if you go north & buy it, Mich. Ohio, Ind. ect, ect. It might be cheaper but I betcha when you start adding options like most Villagers do you’ll have just as much in it & maybe more. The Midwest (north) aren’t giving you options for free & they might charge more. You could buy a used 1990 for $500. but problem would start right away. I had a new 2012 & drove it until 2018, 6 yrs. & never had the first problem with it & had 26,000 miles on it. Bite your tongue & buy a new or at least a 2 yr. old one!

We ended up buying yesterday at Country Village Power Equipment in Webster yesterday. Pretty well equipped for $10,825 plus tax. The enclosure will take 3-4 weeks to make but they are going to deliver it later this week so we can start using it right away. The shopping experience isn't as slick as the villages showrooms, it's a power equipment dealership after all. But the staff is friendly and helpful and seem to genuinely want to get you what you want. For us it was just what we were looking for.

We splurged a bit on the enclosure with these really cool fasteners vs. snaps....we conserved a little with the yamaha touring seats vs. the bucket seats. It's got aluminum wheels, radial tires, premium light kit with the illuminated yamaha logo on the front, folding tinted vented window, and probably a few other things I can't remember.

We ate at Big O's Home Plate in Bushnell....modest appearance on the outside, fantastic burgers and craft beer on the inside with a really friendly staff too. Our bill for burgers and a beer was $14 and change.

Thanks again for all of the comments!!!

I have a reconditioned Yamaha gas cart purchased in 2015 for sale. I am the second owner. Runs great, used infrequently in a villa I rented out.

Would not do THAT, if I were you? They will sell you a piece of junk, rebuilt of course, sell you a warranty along with (not from the manufacturer, but from them), then over the time of the warranty will figure out how they can void the warranty due to something they will say YOU did wrong (like speeding!). BUYER BEWARE!!!!

[Feb 2021 update: A few months after owning the cart, we are still satisfied except for the dealer-added LED light strips. The placement of the side strips is bad because they reflect off the windshield (photo attached) making it more difficult for the driver to see the road at night . Steve refused to fix this problem. Also, they installed LED strips on the front hood that we did not order and I don't like the placement. If you buy a cart from Country Village, I suggest you have any LED strips added after purchase by Liquid Lights.]

I just saved nearly $2000 :) on a new 2021 Yamaha EFI QuietTech golf cart I ordered Country Village Power Equipment, an authorized Yamaha dealer. Country Village is located in Webster, a 20 minute drive south of the Southern Oak/Fenny area.
Country Village starts with a 2021 PTV model (not a stripped down fleet vehicle) that includes premium factory parts including the Yamaha “Ultra-Premium lighting package” (includes lighted logo). I believe this is the same model The Village Golf Cars (TVGC) uses to build the 2021 Lifestyle packages (but not used in their 2021 Hometown or 2018 Refurbs). Country Village doesn’t sell packages, but offers everything a la carte. We decided to get everything that is included in TVGC’s Lifestyle package, including a hard Sunbrella enclosure. This 2021 configuration came out $1989 less at Country Village than TVGC’s 2021 Lifestyle package, and even a little less than a TVGC 2018 Refurb Lifestyle package! I believe it also beats the price of new 2021’s from Carts & Clubs (Ocala) and refurbs from Village Discount Golf Car, neither of which have the factory-direct Ultra-Premium lighting package. Approximate prices:

New 2021:
Villages Golf Cart $12,300
Carts & Clubs (Ocala) $12,000
Country Village (Webster) $10,300

Refurb 2018:
Villages Golf Cart $10,500
Village Discount Carts $11,700

We added a few items not included in TVGC’s Lifestyle package: custom paint for $500, upgraded seat (Backspin Crossover Bench Bucket with 3 arm rests), overhead tray, full dash, and premium Loxx fasteners instead of standard snaps on the enclosure. They do not offer self-cancelling turn signals. Our total price with these extras was about $12,600 plus tax. The above prices exclude tax.
Like most other golf cart stores, Country Village Power Equipment is going to deliver the cart to my house, and come to my house to perform maintenance. You can contact them at Country Village Power Equipment - Home or 352-793-3948. Carolyn was excellent in assisting us with picking out everything we wanted to build our cart. If you ask for Carolyn and let her know I referred you I’ll receive a free maintenance visit. Thanks.

Sounds like a nice build. Would love to see pictures when you get it..

I highly recommend Country Village Power Equipment. Do not buy a golf cart without first checking their prices and commitment to excellent customer service.

Fast Freddy 11-20-2020 08:51 PM

I second the vote for Country Village Power Equipment; we just had ours delivered yesterday. Had a really nice accent graphic placed on the front.

Could you take a picture of your cart with the LED lights on ,I want CVPE to add the lights on my 2020 cart purchased in Oct 2020.
