Wife (5'6) and I (5'10) are debating the marquis v77L, v65L or broadway elite. It'll primarily be my wife and I using the tub in ~60F weather. Can we get by with the v65L with 4 people in the rare instances where friends are over (maybe wishful thinking)?
Our local dealer in California has offered the following prices (including, spa frog, ozone, cover, steps):
- v65L: $7.4k
- v77L: $8K
- Broadway Elite: 7.8k
Questions:
- Are these prices good?
- What's the best way of negotiating down prices?
- Is it really worth getting a larger size if it's just my wife and I who will be using it? Maybe 4 times a year 2 other people might join us
- Broadway Elite vs v77L? I haven't really seen much online about the v77L. How do people like the vector 21 series vs the celebrity elite line?

Those prices are on the low side when factoring the options. Sometimes dealers may do a little bit less if you are paying with cash/check vs credit cards of financing. I like the Broadway Elite over the V77L. Nothing wrong with the Vector series, the Broadway Elite is just roomier and I like the fact that it has 2 cool off seats. It’s more comfortable to me and I am 5’10” as well. Just a heads up, Marquis sales are up 800% from this time last year, and there are parts shortages taking place throughout the industry, so I would check to see if your dealer has anything in stock or on order currently. What city in California are you in?

I think its definitely worth going a bit bigger especially considering the minimal price difference. It will be roomier, you have more seating options and will feel less claustrophobic.
Layout is personal preference. Generally speaking, I prefer the Broadway Elite over the V77L though I personally liked the old 435 more than I do the Broadway. Prices seem pretty good but would need to know what options are included (full foam, lights, spa frog, ozone, etc).
