2014 Mercury/suzuki Advice

[markas76]

I wont ask which one is better becauase that'll just start a never ending debate, but im looking at getting a new boat and tossing up between powering it with either a 2014 90HP SUZUKI or the 90HP MERCURY.
Again, not asking which one is better, but any feedback on either of these engines would be great, does anyone own one of these current model motors that could give me some feedback?? are either engines known for having any negative issues or problems?? This is my first boat and looking at spending a bit of money so just want as much info as I can before I hand over all that cash

Which models?

[Monaroman]

i have a late 2013 suzuki 90hp 4 stroke, awesome motor love it to bits, never fails me, constant reliable smooth power and very economical..... thats my 2 cents worth anyway

I have a pair of the DF90 4 strokes on my 5.8 mtr Genesis craft and they have been absolutly perfect done 270 hrs in about 15 mths i cant rate them highly enough lets just say im building another 7.2 meter Genesis and im putting a pair of DF175TG s on her just because of how well the 90s have been cant say anything about the mercs never owned one

Sorry, should have been more specific. Im looking at the four stroke models so I believe the suzuki is the DF 90 A and the Mercury is just their fourstroke EFI model, the mercury website doesnt show an actual model number as such.

thanks monaroman and thechief for your feedback, good to hear positive things about the Suzuki because Im leaning that way at the moment.
