350x or 200x? Beauty or Beast?

[nouseforaname90]

Ok. I'm not quite sure where this is supposed to go, but my question doesnt pertain to eBay, so I'm going to put it here.
I have $800 to spend on a 3 wheeler to fix up. I'm aiming for a Tri-Z (I found one, I'm having trouble getting arrangements to go get it though), a 200x or a 350x.
Here are the choices:

This is a 350X I found. I would probly get it for around $450ish maybe and pay my uncle $50 to bring it up to me here in Brookville. So I would have $300 for an axle and paintjob and exhaust.. could I fix that 350X up for $300 or not??

And:

This. Which I could probly get for under $500 with "shipping" and I guarantee I could have it shining for $800.

Which would you choose??
My biggest question is whether I could fix up that 350X for $300?? Or even if I could make it run well for $300 I would be happy.
I'm asking because I know nothing about 350X part prices, so go ahead you experts.. inform me!
Thanks
Ben

go with the 200x if anything. The X will be alot more money to fix.

Better get the 200x it has " 5 speed with power bands" :lol: :lol: :lol: and it looks like your SOL on the 350x Mikefromlongisland is bidding on it...:cool:

THe 200X would do more for less..........

[firefirefire90]

Um...TRI-Z....the 200x, like most 200x's, are money pits...You could put the same money in a tri-z and have a faster trike and then sell it for way more than you bought it. The 200x on the other hand..is another story...goood luck!

[nouseforaname90]

Well.. I didn't notice who was bidding on it. It looks like that is out..
I'm trying to work something out with 250sxwheeliepop about bringing that Tri-Z back from NY for me. So I guess I'm gettin myself a Tri-Z or 200X.. lol.
Thanks, guys.

lol I believe that's Rangerover bidding on that 200x :lol:

I know its tough but you don't have to buy the first thing that comes along. Be patient my young skywalker! :D

[nouseforaname90]

Ugh. Well it looks like my only hope is a Tri-Z then.

[xman23]

id go with that 200x over that 350, that 350 is going to take alot of money to fix up, but id also go for a tri-z over the 200x

[mudbogger]

iS RANGEROVER-selling another 350x on Ebay currently??Did Mike fromlongisland win it by chance or it thats someone else?
good price for parts, etc but it probably needed alot of money to get right.

I'd bet that 200x goes for more then $500.

Tri Z is the smartest choice.200X is second choice in my eyes.
