Non-kit built stol aircraft
Sometimes the most fun way to get into the backcountry, Part 103 Ultralights and Light Sport Aircraft have their own considerations.
I'm in need of some advise for which aircraft I should buy. What I want out of the aircraft is off-airport landing capabilities so a STOL aircraft. So far the most appealing aircraft for me seems to be the sti Kitfox, but I do not have the time currently to build one so I'm wondering if anybody knows of any aircraft like the Kitfox (i.e similar performance) that I can buy pre-built for 75,000 USD +- 10,000 USD
Thanks!

Zlin makes a few models in the Savage series that look interesting and come in near or below your price. Rotax 912 powered, and very minimal, but they look like a lot of fun. Zenith makes a CH750 turn key as well, though it is ~$120K. Or buy a used champ, chief, Cub other than a super cub, or pacer, and save half your budget.
