decided to just order a new 230SPX outboard, the quote I received so far is MSRP of $92K with a $3,500.00 discount. Seems really low and I was hoping at least 10%; what have you guys been getting?

TIA
 
On the more expensive boats, 18% seemed to be typical pre COVID, I think that is now more like 10-13%.
That SPX seems expensive for that size boat, but that is a different topic. I would think $7000 off would be more reasonable, but it is a sellers market.
 
I ordered a new 250 SDX in Feb (arrived in July) and got 10% off MSRP. Also got a good price for my trade in boat and got to use it until the new boat arrived. FWIW I also looked at a Yamaha 252. Price was MSRP and was told take it or leave it.
 
I'm surprised that anyone is getting significant discounts. It isn't 2016 anymore.

Around here, it used to be pretty much standard 20% off MSRP, maybe more if you were buying a leftover.

Now, it is MSRP and there is almost zero new inventory.

5-10% off MSRP, in this market, sounds like a good deal- unless you can wait until the market cools down.
 
We’re in south Florida. Ordered a SDX250 OB in July, arrival in October (hopefully). We got 14% MSRP which we were pretty happy with given the Covid inventory issues.
 
I am patiently waiting...and prepared to wait 2-3 years for the frenzy to completely subside and people to forget about boats and all collectively get back to work so that I can buy a new boat at a reasonable less than inflated firm on the MSRP your lucky I'm still talking to you as a salesmam that needs to return hundreds of call inquiries price.
 
Stopped in to my local dealer yesterday- they have a new SDX250 in stock and they offered 10% off MSRP without me even asking. I'm sure I could negotiate a greater discount . . . maybe the boat market is starting to cool off, coupled with the end of the season.
 
I just ordered a 270SDX for delivery in the spring (man is it gonna be a LONG 7 months). Not much negotiation but final deal was 11% off MSRP.
