All I’ve heard is that it’ll be an all new model that will be different than the G series. That it’ll be what the next several models in the coming years will be based off of. I’ve also read something about there being long lasting cogged belts and such. If all this is indeed true, I’m...

I’d say…
The Ultimate G Diamond Edition. For the fact of, it has a delicate switch. Which allows you to switch between normal and low power for different types of carpets and rugs. As well as drapes and whatnot. The Diamond is the better deal here.

Custom Kirby Builds
My “Ultimate Gsix” and my close buddy’s “Killer Bee” are prime examples of custom vacuums.
Both are identical, except his is an Avalir/Gsix hybrid. Mine is an Avalir/Gsix/Ultimate G hybrid. Both are fantastic machines and have a lot of power (from the modified Metal Fans)...
Good Find!
That will clean up nicely and work well for many more years.
