Only a few days ago I sent Bigdaddynz an email saying I would wait a long while before I bought the new CS. In the mean time, I got an insider offer for the new 39013 01 loco for $679. I thought, Euromodeltrains has a pre order for the CS2 for $669. It's ordered (CS2) - I guess I will be one of the people to suffer through debugging this time. I will certainly keep one of my 6021s for backup. I am excited about the new one where as the first one did not get me moving. We will see. Eric According to a witness involved in a discussion at the Marklin "road-show"( Stummi forum) : First batchs of CS2 started to be produced in February 2008 to be sent to Beta-Testers... From the beginning It tooks almost 2 years ( a little bit less )to developp it with a team of about 15 people within Marklin walls at Stuttgart street - Goppingen . No Viessmann, no ESU in any way , were involved into the developpment of CS2 . So they took 6 months already to fix bugs ... ( sorry for my poor English )

Here, the NZD has strengthend against the USD, after falling for some time. Most likely we would get slugged 12.5% GST (VAT) on something over $400 coming into the country, but this is not always the case. So, assuming USD30 postage, the CS2 would cost around NZD1020 plus a possible 12.5% making a total of around $1150. The CS1 retailed here for anything between $1100 to $1400. NZ retail price for the CS2 is NZ$1369 - see www.toottoot.co.nz The price I state in my previous post was based on bringing in a unit from overseas - the US or maybe Germany. I think the pricing isn't too bad, considering the CS1 was $1100 from the same dealer. For your extra $220 (above bringing a CS2 in from overseas) you get local support and warranty repairs. Not too bad!
