Difference between 2003-2006 and 2006-Present Model D

Post by psucrewcronin » May 14th, 2008, 5:59 pm

I'm looking to purchase a used Model D off Ebay and I noticed that the one being sold is one of the older Model Ds. Is there a significant difference between the older and newer model D other than cosmetics?

Thanks

Newer ones may have a PM4 rather than PM3.

The framelock is easier to operate on the newer machine. And the foot stretchers were redesigned.

Other than that most changes were simply the pimped paintwork.

See http://www.concept2.com/us/support/rowe ... efault.asp for important info about the newer model D.
