Hi Keith. This is the kind of information I am looking for. This is why I posted. Please share - what does your Ancott Directory say about the ASR? My method of coming up with a price quote for what a C3 costs now is to remember what the sticker said on a new C3 at the local Yamaha dealer about a year or two ago: $19 thousand-something. Maybe I am off base somehow. So please educate me/us. That is why this list is such a fabulous resource.
