Sounds like you're getting a pretty good deal on the MZM. I'd be happy if I was you.
Yeah, that RC18 Factory Team version is just a rolling chassis. Cost you quite a bit more to get it going. The Mini-T is also available in a "Pro" version, but I've seen the RTR version going for as low as $100-110. The RC18s I believe run about $140 for the RTRs. I suppose it's probably worth the extra for 4wd.

*Digging up old post*
I've heard that the iW 04 glitches alot, and sometimes suddenly spazzes. Is this true?

Trust me, the 18th scale is far more fun. I've spent about 400 on my Zilla and am doing probably 55 or so. BTW, that 400 includes the rtr package. I actually recently sold my 18T. It was nice handling-wise and all, but the zilla's a bit better for a basher. I also didn't like its high-speed stability. Mine had trinity street meats and the handling got really shitty when the speed went up due to tire expansion.
Overall, 1:18 has been far more fun than 1:28. 1:64 is still fun for its price to fun ratio, but 1:18 is just great for going outside, driving it, then just driving it around a little in your room.

Thanx for the reply, I was fairly sold on the zilla when i saw it a couple days ago. It's amazing, I remember all these things coming out, but just passed them off. I was really into bits. Now my pocket's expanded and my need for speed grew
. I only
just fot a MRS4 in august, so I got alot of catching up to do.
1:10 scale is too big and too expensive for me, eventhough I has a 2nd hand one for a while.
oops, off-topic ramble. I'll shut up now
