Anyone have a new cs-370?

Looked at a new Echo cs-370 today. I'm thinking of getting rid of my 346 for a 370. Anyone have a review of this saw?
thanks

Demoed one at a show for the hell of it and to shut the rep up. As usual it could not outcut the MS210 that I ran it against. I also don't like the small bar studs and the even smaller adjustment screw. Another thing to look out for is the plastic chain catcher. I guess it is to save money.
It would not have mattered anyway, I STIHL would not have bought one.

I purchased one from a local dealer that I know well. I have had Echo saws before,a 8000 and a 440 .I cant say I was overwhelmed with the power to weight,and they do cost some ,but they always start and are very durable.My 370 is no exception.I have it set up with a 16''bar and Husky non safety chain.It also has a modded muffler,and It cuts good.I paid 250 for it,tax included,and thats not a bad deal.It has redesigned air filtration that works,as i have found out through cutting in many conditions.It is not a real revver,but it is a small saw and it is a good limber,although i dropped a walnut tree this past summer in my yard and did it all with the 370,It was about 14''dia.and it did very well,best of all,they arent gray anymore!
