Here's my version of the slammed X5. I mounted a X5 Overland body on a MR02 chassis and slapped a little paint on it. Didn't want to do too much cuz it will get raced, and yes, it does handle pretty well. The alloy MR02 chassis helps keep the CG low.
Here is how it is mounted to the MR02 chassis. I used the 350Z front clip and made my own reciever for that, and mounted racer side clips.

Nice... that'll look cool kickin' ass on a Porsche or a Ferrari on the track. SuperFly and I were just talking about the opposite... like, putting a subaru body on an overland chassis.

Thanks! Speaking of Porsche, I was just thinking about doing this very same thing to the new Cayenne body.

Ahh5hit, that ride is just badass and pimpin, like all your other rides...but I have a question or two....How well does it handle with the low COG and the midship layout? Does it flip/spin out easily?

Sorry Gokou I know shit about what "COG" and "midship layout" mean, but fer christ sake, Lower center of gravity to me means less flipping. Oh... COG is Center of Gravity.... Arite, your a dumbass.
