I bought it from the chainsaw guy on eBay. soup to nuts was 1485$ shipped
It was pricey but beats dealing with our local Stihl dealers. Only thing tho, mine doesn't have the Arctic decal on the clutch cover...

Really too bad you didn't join up over here sooner. I had them as low as $1300 shipped earlier this year.

Yours doesn't have even have the small black decal ?

You should email your ebay seller. They come from Stihl already stuck on. For that price the least he could do is get you one.

I was able to track down a am fuel cap decal from eBay. It's a close replica as the colors are a little off.

I'm sure there'll also be an Artic model with the 462.

I sure hope so. Already have names on a waiting list...

662....future model following the 462?

There is an arctic model of the MS 462 existing: MS 462 C-M VW.

I wonder what VW translates to in English? Arctic?

 

[DND 9000]

VW means carburetor and handle heating.

TY sir. So Arctic is not available with Mtronic? Interesting.

462 C-M VW
C - comfort feature
M - M-tronic
V - Heated Carb
W - Heated Handle

Or something like that.

Both my 261 and 661 are M-tronic and Arctic.

I know you are more used to the old skool saws but these new ones are pretty awesome, especially when they have been worked over.
