Differences between the Rhino 700 and 450

Hello folks, seriously considering getting a side by side. I am just not sure which one yet. A friend of mine has a '07 450 Rhino which he let me drive. Shocked at how well it rode, impressed I guess is a better word. My thing would be it did'nt seem to have a great deal of throtle response. Also it is a noisy ride, he had told me the 700 is quieter because the intake is under the hood on the 700.

I guess what I am trying to ask is there a great deal of difference between the 700 and 450. I am leaning more towards the 700 anyways just haven't got a chance to drive one yet. I am used to a YFZ and I realize you can't compare the two. Due to a bad back I am going for the more comfortable ride, but at the same time I want somthing that will still get up and go. Thanks for any help you guys can give me.

If you are going to keep it stock and on trails the 450 is a very impressive machine. If you do ANY sand dunes or big elevation change riding, plan on four seating it go with the 700 efi. The intake will annoy you compared to the new design which hasn't been incorporated on the 450 yet. There is a substantial price difference but there is in my opinion more performance upgrade and resell potential in the larger cc machine.

Thanks, I am thinking the 700 would be better. I may want to put a seat in the back somtime in the future.
