Welcome to BGW.

I just purchased a 2018 Quietech, brand new, hands down the best cart I've ever owned in the first few days I've owned it. Besides being super quiet (compared to other gas carts) the IRS is fantastic and it rides silky smooth. I have not even had time to begin "upgrading" it yet.

As for speed, it was 19 mph when I got it, factory set. 30 seconds and a zip tie later I have 25 mph (may be able to squeeze a little more too, but I'm good with this speed). I know from talking to Plowmans you can get into the 30's with this cart for around $400 worth of upgrades from them. Easily worth the cost in my opinion if you want to be around 30 mph.

New vs Used? I can't tell you how to spend your money. I've never purchased a brand new cart until now, and while it was a pretty penny, we ride ours daily, at least 5-7 miles each day, so it was worth the extra money to me having a full warranty and a super nice cart that will be well cared for. Nice knowing no one else modified it, ran it into a tree, etc. With that said, my previous 3 carts, all purchased used ran and worked great, but there is something about that new cart smell! :)

Good luck in what ever you decide. Happy to answer any Drive 2 Quietech related questions you might have.
