I'll get some pics/video next week of these and hopefully I can test run these babies at RCX Expo.

I'm in for the E-Revo

that thing looks sweet but man the price is gonna be ridiculous, i mean for the price of those things i could go buy another 1/8 buggy. i just dont see the reasoning in spending more on the smaller ones than the bigger ones, i mean i have a losi mini-dt, but i got that for 50 bucks, so it was worth it, but i dont think i would have bought it for 130

Here is an MSRP I got from the Traxxas forum and guessing that the E-Revo will go for about
$250-300ish? How I came up with that, well I done a search on msrp for the 1/10 e-revo
brushless and this is what I got for msrp and selling price. But I would pay $300 without
any reservation.

E-Revo 1/10
MSRP: $960.00
Your Price: $449.00

1/16 Version's
MSRP:
Slash $490
E-Revo $510

I got to have the revo, look like the only difference in the two are the body, wheels and tires and the bumper.

Hi,
Where did you source that price of $280 & $295 respectively? Those seem to be too high considering the current recession.

Hopefully Traxxas will be sensitive to the market and offer some sort of rebate to effectively bring the price of both to below $250 each.
