Keep in mind the 3401 (D.A) and the 3403 (Rotary) are different animals. The price listed above is for the Rotary.

I think i will go with the makita anyone think i should go with any other one?

I see the hitatchi goes to 3400 rpm is that going to be more benaficial than the makita at 3000rpm basically the same price.

With rotary you shouldn't be exceeding 1800 RPM anyway. (Others may go higher or prefer lower).. but I don't think anyone gets near 2K+ regularly.

Of course correct me if I am wrong.

Which makes one wonder, why not make a 'detailer friendly' rotary? One where the dial can't put you up past 2200 or something? Just in case of those accidental bumps.

I am going to order a Makita at coastal and googled promotional code and found "BMW' as maybe a 10% bimmerfest code. give it a try. I will try to use it when i order it tonight.

thanks

my only suggestion is if you order from coastal tool, is to have them open the box and securely wrap the buffer in some bubble wrap (you'll have to ask). otherwise they'll send it with no packaging peanuts, etc, inside and it can get banged up in/around the box while shipping...
