Default Which would be a better deal

Have a chance at a 2009 and or a 2010 Precedent cart. $2400 and $2600. Top, windshield, lights and the 2010 has a rain enclosure, both have chargers ..Do not know how old batteries are at this time. Both run great. Which would be the better cart? If color is a concern, the 2009 is Green and the 2010 is white. I can also get a 2012 for $2850. No lights but top and windshield. Which would you get?

Thanks

same here I vote 09, I don't see $200 justifying a one year newer cart unless there were major changes between 09-10.

I don't believe there were any...

The only thing that would concern me is the following. I'm not sure if it would be free to convert to the MCOR2.

However, I've seen lots of 2009 vehicles still equipped with the TPS. If you have it, convert it. It's going to cause you trouble down the road.

2009 Vehicles that were converted from a TPS to an MCOR2 will have a small adapter (PHOTO ATTACHED) plugged into the MCOR. In IQ models, it's simply a plug designed to convert the 6 pin TPS connector to the classic style MCOR2 plugs. In Excel models, this adapter has three 461ohm resistors inside soldered into the three throttle wires. This adapter MUST BE in place or the Excel vehicle will not function properly. In 2008 and 2010-Present the resistors are soldered into the main wire harness and the adapter is not necessary.

Jakesnake brings up a good point. If you hear a click from underneath the floor when you depress the pedal you've got an MCOR on it already. If you dont, it's a TPS and you'll need to invest in the TPS to MCOR conversion kit, or you can get creative and buy an MCOR4 conversion kit with a TPS adapter. Either way, we'll help you get it done.

The batteries alone if taken care of this probably the best deal, unless the others are newer also peed code 4 cost $100 bucks.

Wouldn't be a concern anymore we have them figured out for upgrades later but speed code 4 is probably fairly quick.

What is the downfall of the Excel carts over the IQ? I know the IQ, you can change the magnet and it will work but not in the Excel. Other than that I haven't really heard.
