I'm admittedly biased and have not looked at prices in quite some time.
I own a 1/3 share of a '71 Arrow and can say that it's an excellent
platform I intend to use for my commercial certificate someday. I'm
working on my IFR ticket right now and have been enjoying flying the
Arrow. I'm sure that the other models you're looking into would suffice
for what you're looking for and that each has it's respective
advantages/disadvantages.

The best advice I can offer is take your time and be ready to walk away
from a deal. It took us six months to find our plane and we had the
first two deals fall through. In the end, we wound up with a nicely
equipped plane and a very smooth sales transaction.

Good luck in your search.
