So right. The Arcus is a poor performer and anyone that bought one is probably feeling very taken advantage of and likely wants out just to avoid the continuing humiliation. Never mind the waste of money.



Being the helpful sort I am, I'll offer up $75K US to the first seller of a well kept example of the breed who just can't deal with it anymore. After all, that's about the asking price for a nice and much older D2 that can blow its gear doors off....



Waiting by the phone and wondering how on earth I'll ever get anyone to help me put it together at my local club....

T8 and P3 don't need an Arcus. I'll up it to $100k for the old dog, $125k if it can launch it's sad self.
Then perhaps I can get "the scoundrel" Michaud back in the air.
