Yeti big top 2012 29er

Hi,
Has anyone rode yeti big top before? I am thinking to build one with 100mm fork. Any difference between 2012 and 2013 model? Is it worth to pay 1K+ more for full carbon frame? Any advise is welcome!

I had a 2011 white/turquiose then 2012 black big top. Some minor differences like inset headset etc. 2012/13 are the same I think. Haven't ridden carbon but have read they are STIFF.
Super fun hardtail best at 100mm but can be easily be run at 120mm to bomb the downhills. Slightly heavy for a hardtail 29er but you can bomb it! A true do it all hardtail bike. Really fun bike which made me go for a Yeti sb95 as an upgrade as it suits my trails better (and I am getting old!).
