If you have to ask, you can't afford it...

Long waits to purchase any of the above aircraft new. Huge premium for used. Take your pick.

G500--Not as long legs as the 550.

G550--The king. See above re: wait time in decades (well, almost...). $55m basic.

7X--Not as long legged at the others. Nice though. Delivery positions can be had--for a price (I believe).

GLEX--Reliability issues. Long wait times (less than for a G, but still years away). Better cabin.

$65m for a used G550. I know of a couple coming on the market in '11.

Good luck. TC
