both great. both perform well. i may be wrong but my feeling is hustler would be a bit faster. 92 with 525s is possible as 500s regularly took that boat to 88 and even 90 in right conditions (low fuel load, 2 people, cool NY weather in say february...)
cigarette will always be a cigarette but i feel hustler has more modern lines. the front deck has a very nice flowing design and i like the integrated swim platform. but it's all about taste at this point: traditional, square look vs. more modern, flowing lines.
anyway, you're lucky to be in this position. i don't think you can go wrong with either of those.

I can't speak for the Top gun as I have never owned one. I can tell you that my Slingshot has been a great boat. I would also say that 92mph w/525's sounds pretty close. Both are very nice boats in my opinion. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about the Hustler.

I driven both. For the lakes and rivers it would be Hustler. Bay's and Ocean Cigarette all the way.
