I found a dealer that has some left over 2015s. I was thinking I wanted a newer one but it is a new boat - just the old one.

What will I be missing out on a 2015 vs 2017?

TR-1 engines on the 2017.

No extended keel. Maybe the thrust vectors make it good enough.

No connect.

Even if it is new - is is still 2 - soon to be 3 years old

What would be my target price on it?

Thanks,
D.
 
The biggest item that comes to my mind is the noise reduction and folding seats built into the 2017.
 
I agree with @buckbuck I would still consider this but it would need to be around $35,000 out the door all fees and taxes included even though the boat will be new the second you drive off the lot it is a 2-3 year old used boat much more than that you would be up ended pretty hard pretty fast.
 
Price on eBay was $34,995. I called them and they quoted my $36,499.

They have 3 of the 2015s left in stock., 10 hour drive each way, etc. If it was low 30s I would consider it but I am thinking pass.

For that price I would go 2015. With the 24' lineup, there is not much of a difference especially for that price.

Honestly I would pass unless you can get a better deal. I'm struggling to buy a 17 as I know the 18's are being shown in less than 3 months!
 
If it was a 24' I would consider it but the 21' had a lot of changes. 2018s right around the corner - the 2015 will take another hit in value.
