The Sonic is the more collectible of the two. Nice, original condition.

The ASE would be a better user. A friend has a 200 same year and its a good thing.
WANTED. Canams;all models,complete or parts.SWM stuff too!

The amazing thing is the engine in the ASE is basically the same as the 1974 Can Am 250 - they really were that powerful in 1974 and the breadth of the powerband was awesome. 

... and I sold my '74
