I think they probably overestimated demand and have to offload the inventor

The have a new control out now, the P500, these are probably the last gen control the P300.

Doesn't' 400k seem kinda expensive for this machine? You are in high end German 5ax territory with that pricing...

The $400K pricing is competitive with similar Japanese machines. $260K is a pretty good deal. That's getting below DN pricing....tho I would like to see the options included (probing, tool setting/detection, high pressure coolant, yadda yadda. anymore these are not options, they are a necessity.)

Nobody makes better iron than Okuma. The control isn't as full featured as the other guys, but getting both from a single source means plenty in the market as they sure are popular machines. There are other mills that win the specification vs price war but their management/ownership isn't as stable as Okuma. Not sure i'd buy a general purpose lathe from anyone buy Okuma. I wiped the floor on an impeller test cut with a Mikron vs the Genos 5ax. But if I needed to hog steel castings for 20 years my confidence would be higher investing in okuma.
 And only an idiot would buy a new Haas VF3 3ax instead of the Genos 560. Not sure if anyone can touch it for the price.

Edit.. and feel free to opine since this was just a blab.. I certainly didn't give credit to other fine builders
