[Mido]

Ok i wanna buy this car but I'm not sure if its a good deal... heres the addd and please post how much you think i should offer for it

I am selling my savage X 4.6. It is RTR. The truck is in amazing condition and runs great. I have only done the breakin runs on it and thats it. The truck goes about 73KM/H+. This truck can do 45 MPH wheelies. It is the newest truck that HPI has on the market.

Don't do it. The flat out TOP speed it can reach is 45MPH, so there's no way he can pop the front end at that speed.
He lists NONE of this upgrades (allegedly $1100 worth).
The 4.6 is the stock engine, and since no upgrades are listed making it worth more than the $450 you'd pay off the rack, it's not worth even thinking about.
Buy one brand new and add your own upgrades.
Charger, batteries and Radio are the only extras. the rest of his tale is bs.

no pics!! if you havent seen pics.. dont even think about it. if you have and he is saying that it is new.. uhhm, only did breakin?!? then it should be absolutly spotless with no scratches.. but then again was he pulling wheelis during break in? you should ask him.. rule of thumb with any rc.. if its used wich it is(nobody spends $1100 to do a breakin)then you can count on a good rig losing its value by about 40%.. i did a little search for yu..i would not buy it. a brand new 4.6 rtr cost $420!! the radio gear that he has is no better then the rtr radio.. thats listed $80.. with the stuff he has listed he is barely over $600

73 Kilometers per Hour = 45.360097033325374 Miles per Hour

He's relying on you being ignorant of the metric system. In fact there is a guy here who has a much nicer Savage for sale with a lot more stuff for like $320 and he has pictures and a parts list, I would have bought it but my friend sold me a t-maxx that I couldn't pass up.

And just because he got bent over on a deal and paid $1100+ doesn't mean you need to get bent over by him on the $600 price tag...it just isn't worth it.

Amen on every bit of this post!! I've seen some rather insane claims in the past like this. You are much better off to surf the for-sales here and pick one up. The members here are about the most honest bunch you'll come across.
