Nimbus 2000 Decision

Nimbus 2000 Decision
I have been looking into buying a new Nimbus 2000 for quite some time now, but I figure this time I will buy a really good one, one that will provide years of service to me. Only question... where to start? There are a few brands and models that I have looked at and have narrowed it down to these (I think):

1). Nimbus 2001 ($289)

2). Silver Arrow ($229)

3). Oakshaft 79 ($299)

Personally I like the Oakshaft 79 and the Nimbus 2001 better than the Silver Arrow, but of course this is all based on the opinions on what I have read. There isn't a quidditch store anywhere near me to look at some of these sticks, and I would probably only find the Silver Arrow there anyway. I know that these are all top end sticks, so I don't think that I would get ripped off at all. I would be ordering off of www.quidditch.com, which I have done some research on and found that they are pretty good to deal with. Also, this site is the only one that sells oakshaft 79 sticks in North America. So, long story short I am looking for people to give their valued opinions on this tough decision... I have probably looked at the nimbus 2001 the hardest so far, sounds pretty tough and at a fair price.

The Nimbus 2XXX series is so outdated. Go for a Firebolt or better.

I just bought myself a Cleansweep 7 on wBay. I've done a few modifications to it. I'm planning on challenging a dude, who lives down the road, to a drag race against his Firebolt.
