Just putting it out there .What are they worth ? How much in upgrades would it cost ? I heard the 2012 is poor.

Book value between $5500-$7000 pending mileage and condition. Imo not worth getting... Look for a '14 or up. My dealer is trying to sell '15's for $10500.00

I'm trying to sell mine for $6500 with 3100 km. It's been a flawless sled. I know some had problems but mine has always worked. I also have all the dealer updates done as well as 2014 gearing and clutch and 2013 narrow front end. Only reason for selling is I would like a 2010-2011 M8 with a few less miles.

It's sad how cheap they're going. If your buying look for one that was bought in 13-14 season. It most likely had all the upgrades/ bug fixes done before purchase. Bought mine as a non current in 13 and haven't has an issue yet

So SLAMNEC you must not value the new chassis if you are wanting to back to an M. Why is that? I saw your listing and it does look like an ok unit but I felt the mileage was comparatively high at that price point. I wondered about going new chassis but ended up getting a 2011 M8 153 std. Black. With 1500 miles for $5,500.

It's a very different feel on the new chassis and some (more the ones who have ridden the m chassis for a long time) still like the feel of the m. Also a much easier to repair yourself unit. I'll even admit sometimes I miss my m chassis but the new one has definitely grown on me the last two seasons

Still have my 2010 for sale. Bought a 2013 proclimb late last season. One trip to Valemount on it in 2'+ of powder and I really noticed the extra bite of the 2.6 track over the 2.25 on my M. It will take some getting used to but I prefer the new chassie so far. Smoother on the trail and seems to get out of the snow easier than my M did. Which I still love to ride BTW... JMHO

The M series were alot easier to ride the P/C takes some trial and error and suspension adjustments. But once you figure it out you wont go back.

The M was a great sled. Those of us that had them never have much bad to say about them. But.....line up an M and a ProClimb with just the standard can and clutching mods at the bottom of a hill on a deep pow day and you will see very quickly that they are no where near the same sled. Get into a 2014+ and the difference just increases. :cool:
