Default Advise on buying a Yamaha Gas Cart

I am looking at buying a Yamaha gas cart. I would be interested to hear who has bought one, where they bought it, and any advise you could give to me. Are you happy with it and the customer service you have received at the dealership. Thank you.

We bought ours from Kim at the Colony Yamaha dealer. Do check when the newer models are coming in. When we bought ours they didn't mention that the new models would be in two weeks from then. Two of my favorite add ons are the ac adapter and the upper shelf. A fan would be nice also. We also added the speedometer, gas gauge and odometer worth the money. The ultimate seats are awesome and to me well worth the money if you have back issues.

We bought ours at Carts and Clubs on 441 south of Ocala. Very happy with the deal and ditto for the service after the sale.

Carts and Clubs in Ocala was our choice. Biggest reason was the Sunbrella enclosure. There seams, snaps, gaps, and design are far superior to any other we saw. I have two Yamaha carts. One from Carts and Clubs and one from The Villages Golf Carts. Checking them side by side they are both great carts. But the enclosure on Carts and Clubs cart is so much better. We hardly ever drive the Villages cart in the cold or rain.

Carts and Clubs of Ocala. Great product, great service and more bells and whistles for your money compared to The Villages. Plus the carts are quieter, because they insulate the engine.

Used Carts and Clubs in Ocala. better warranty and better design for the encloser. Prices are the same as Village Golf car.
Great Service and Food Cert for purchase!

Did anyone buy a new Yamaha golf cart outside the Villages? Some dealers outside "the bubble" are selling them for much less money. Not mentioning any names, but Google "New Yamaha Golf Carts" and take a look at their websites.

Todd Gambino at the Sumpter Landing Villages Golf Cars is great to deal with.

I bought mine from TV shop at Lake Sumter Landing and have had no problems.
Just make sure, no matter where you buy it, you get the EFI model which I think came out in 2012.
Better fuel economy and from what I have heard less smell.

I see Carts and Clubs carry the MEE enclosures. Does anyone have one of these? are they ok? what do they cost?
