Guess who was added to the family today.

With gt3b radio, A lot of integy aluminum upgrades, pcsc hpi (costs like 200$), new set of bowtie proline tires with desperado rims, piggy shocks, all genuine HPI, 26cc stock motor with stock pipe. All for 875$

Good deal?

(Note that my country sells the stock hpi brand new unused for 1800$)
They're $1600 here in Aus

Where are you

I picked a used one. I don't care since this is going to be fortified a lot.

I live in Beirut, Lebanon.

1600 Aus is a lot. See DDM, they are around 1080$ US, but yeah, it makes sense, add to that shipping, custom fees and the dealer's winning.

In my country, it's around 1800-1900$.

Depends how much you are friends with the seller.

Yeah. I spoke to Dan over at king motors. It's 529$.

I calculated shipping cost (140$) and customs around 200$.

And then i stumbled upon this with some cool spares and nice mods and parts.

Added to this, then shipping would take 3 weeks to reach here.

So i took the used one. Its the same thing. Im even gona change to rcmax46cc engine
