Anyone know what type of nitro rc this is? Looking at the picture, :)?

I saw this nitro rc on craigslist for a really nice price. I was wondering what model and brand it was. The owner doesn't know so before i buy it i want to know its brand. Any of you Nitro rc expert can help me. I'm new to this. Pictures below.

Yep. If your a newb, I'd stay away unless your looking for a project. Who knows what kind of shape that thing's in.

Maybe that's why its so cheap :\

Yep. You could wrap up $200 into it if the engine needs replaced, bearings, ect... A new one is only $250.

I got another for you to check out for me. Tell me what you think.

RC car Traxxas Nitro Rustler 2.5 for $150 FIRM, no trades. Tons of aftermarket and aluminum parts. Runs great, super fast. Several hundred in aftermarket parts.

That looks like a better deal, but I'm always apprehensive about recommending a used nitro. You just never know what kind of shape the engine is in. Unless you can physically see it run.

I don't like used ones either, but if I was buying one, I'd have to price it as if there was no engine at all.

Do the deal after it starts and runs. If it doesn't, it's a parts car.
