Are you saying that you can buy a Cessna 150 that is IFR capable with,
say,
1500 hours TBO for $25,000 - $35,000? If so, then I agree a C 150 would be
a
good deal.
A Zodiac XL ready to fly would cost about $46,000 IFR equipped.
That's more than a very solid, IFR certified late 70's Warrior with a mid
time engine currently books for, which, with newish paint, is
indistinguishable from a 2003 Warrior.
I'm glad the Zodiacs are out there (the more planes the merrier) but one has
to value "new" much more than I do to make Zodiacs look better than older
PA-28-151/161's.

A Zodiac HD ready to fly would cost about $42,500 IFR equipped. However,
it
wouldn't be legal to fly the HD in the U.S. so the comparison has to be
for
the XL.
