Any chance of getting them numbers?
CJ or extreme? :???:
So far they are not in the computers here in the store or Fort Worh. We got a project in that we have to do and it showed where to put the new Xmods and shows descriptions and cat#'s no prices YET.

I have decided to make a new topic so we can keep this focused on Zip Zaps and not Xmods.

Xmods Spoilers and Info

Meh, it's a graphic. :lol:
I'm gonna TRY to keep my distance from the xmods, especially since I hear from my local RS manager that they'll be in the $100 range. I'll stick with the zips. :-)
Thanks again man for the info you provide us with.

:eek: :eek: :eek:

I thought it was just BS for a while...but i can't wait! Maybe I'm alone here, but even if they were just coming out with the initial D bodies i would still be amped beyond sanity. This is gonna be one interesting fall/winter...

just think, being able to actually control your car around huge 5-6' radius curves without having to clickclickclickclickclickclick your controller to not spin out or smack into the wall...man! this means no more oversteer/understeer modifications, or screwing around with the weak (current) steering mechanism....man I could go on for hours... :-D :-D :-D
