Losi eight t

[wacmartin]

Curious to see what you guys think the price should be on a losi eight t stock except axle extenders and a losi 350 engine. Engine looks like it's been skidded across the ground more then once, other than that it looks clean and in good condition.

I am assuming it is an RTR, not a race T? (Pink chassis and towers?)

350 is a good spare engine - nothing wrong with them, but not your engine of choice either.

Does it comes with box and ratio?


Really depends on the condition . . .

RTR - with a 350 in excellent condition, with box (no batteries) and radio - $350 - $450??

If it is in ok condition, without a bump box and without the radio equipment - $250-$350 I guess . . .

Consider the engine to have virtually no value - it is good for a spare or something to push around the car until you can afford the engine you really want.


The market will dictate what the car is worth.

What is included in the deal - what is the condition - what is the price?

It's a losi eight t 1.0 its in ok condition, bnd no bump box. I passed up on it, dude originally wanted $800 I told him that's ridiculous said he'd take no less than $650. It's on a Facebook group I joined one of his "friends" messaged me saying it's a 1.0 with a 2.0 body. Glad I didn't drive the hour to find that out plus that's a shady thing to do and I'd rather not deal with that kind of person.

No bump box and it was a 1.0! - $650 LOL

Tell him he's dreaming!

You did the right thing in keeping away from that one.

If you just wanna bash, look out for a RTR 8ight T - should get one with box and radio for around $450, maybe a lil more - just depends on the condition really and if the box has a battery/batteries .

If you wanna race, you will want a different engine, different chassis and shock towers and alloy shock caps - it's not worth upgrading the RTR (as I did), better to look out for a Race 8ight T or race roller - price just depends on what it has and the condition.


Just factor in when you are looking at the 8ight T RTR's that they are a great car, but the Losi 350 (which is normally a buggy engine) is just 'ok' - the 454 is quite good, but probably not the engine you will wanna keep in the car . . . and if it has the standard servos, you will definately want to replace them.

Losi have just released the Buggy 3.0 . . . I expect the Truggy 3.0 will not be too far off . . . The 2.0's will be available fairly cheaply I expect - I would not bother about a 1.0 . . . .

I'm holding off on any new rc's for awhile I need to get out more with my savage flux, had it for about 3 months and had out maybe 10 times.
