SG219. Yeah him......
I just don't pay much attention to who is bidding. If I see something, I just put the money down and hope for the best.

We Knowwwwwww!

Nice pic! I wonder if that Nur Skyline limited editon bit is a Holy Grail?
It's available at this site listed below for 100$, the most I've ever seen quoted for a Bit kit: http://www.microamps.com.au/Items_for_sale.htm

Supposedly it's the only set ever sold with a 3.0 straight outta the box, but something like that don't mean shit to me-that's what upgrades are for, and I get all mine for about $1.50 now- very sweet...

That car is strictly for Collector Status now. Yes it was the Only Bit with a 3.0 out da box which made it the fastest production Micro "at that time", it came before "upgrades" were as plentiful as they are now, that plus the limited production run is why it demands such a price. I personally wouldn't pay that much for it, but I am on the scout for one, just a matter of time

To me the Voltz is the rarest, never sold, could only be won in a lottery of sorts and was suppose to have a limited production run of 300. Now, not everyone that has these "rare" collectables are aware of their real value, lucky for us!

Agreed! Of course, the only thing I can find of value in the Voltz Bit is the body, unless the chassis/controller configuration is of 2 speed and a frequency I could use. I've never been much of a collector though. Oh and thanks for the Tower Hobbies suggestion, DT, it had everything I needed and then some

I got pretty much every hop up they make and in multiples for cheap!
