Wonderful, but yes, too high poly.

I don't know what the exact figure should be... and with the current culling thing it keeps adding up.

So, the lower the better and make the rest with textures. It's the best thing you can do right now.

Great model, but way too many polys. I'd keep it under 2000. But since you have a high res model, you can make a "normal" map to apply to your lower res model and retain lots of apparent detail. ATI and Nvidia both have normal map creators and I'm pretty sure 3ds max can make them natively, although I'v never done it personally.
