Which Brand of Electric Cart to Choose

[InVision]

Newbie here and I want to get folks options about which brand of cart to start with. Instead of buying a cart brand and then looking for modification, I want to know which brand to start with.

So after riding a few electric carts and reading some I have come up with general specs. Please feel free to help me first choose a brand. If there is a from the factory cart that would work please let me that also.

I would like a conventional looking cart with the following in priority:

1 - Would like it to go ~30mph reliably.
2 - Fold down rear seating (total four seats or 2 seat and a bed).
3 - Top and windshield
4 - Large street tires ~22" with proper lift
5 - Full light package and horn
6 - Rear view mirror
7 - Bumpers
8 - Corrosion resistant (live in FL near water)
9 - Maintenance friendly
10 - Color solid white, silver or blue.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. I was thinking a club car with modifications. But realizing there are other good brands I kind of wanted get a feel before purchasing.

Thank you,

Well I think I narrowed it down some. Club car or EZGO. Surprised with all the cart expertise that someone did not even suggest a brand.

Club Car has an aluminium frame that shouldn't rust. Everything else you named is an "up" feature you either buy with any cart or add after you buy.
How much do you want to spend?

Dont really have a budget. I am retired so buying a nice used unit and modifying isnt out either. Always need a project or two. 4-5k is a bogey.

The best two carts are EZGO and Club Car, if you get one of those you wont go wrong. Go to the electric ezgo and electric club car threads and look around.
