She's not too bad for a saw with an inboard clutch . ;)
 
Nice looking saw. :) :)

Where does it fit into the gamut with all the other saws.

Does it fill a niche that the others didn't?

Nope, it doesn't really . It's just one of the saws I've always wanted . Being as its ported , it's one heck of a fun saw to run ! She's really a very responsive little beasty .
 
Its ones my all time favorite.............
 
Anybody who owns a 372XP, 044 (or 440), AND a 460 has Stage 4 CAD. What? All those saws are professionally ported too? Jeez, No hope for this guy. (Tosses his scrubs in the trash.)

Just meens hes still chasing the high. You never get higher than best saw! For me I should have stop with the 460. ;) Stage 4 cad hes to far gone. Now north of 120 cc or bust!

Does stage 5 CAD involve nitromethane?

No, that was what to me was per-cad . 2cycle RC engines , tuned pipes, 25% nitro........then I bought my first really good saw, the 044. :)

All the ones sold here say that or Made in the USA.

Take a good look at the pro saws. Last 460 i look at (about 4 months ago) Still say made in Germany.

MS440 and up are German, MS362 I dunno any more. Everything else is Made in USA (Virginia Beach) if it's sold here.

Check the serial #'s. First digit =1 then it's German, 2 = USA.

My 034 says made in West Germany on it. :)
