Default (Price-wise) is this a good deal?

I know when one deals with used items, anything can go, but I was looking for one thing, and came across this eBay offer,

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW

And I was wondering if it was worth the asking price, I know little about nitro engines and kits, so I figured I'd ask the experts here.

Thanks

Problem is the car is very old and will begin to go out of production. For not much more money you can get the current model.

Don't do it, Rambo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First off,the guy had the motor apart 'cause the heads on wrong...
second,you can buy the new RTR 18 model for a few bucks more.....which is a shaft drive model which is better for bashing anyway.......

if you want a good car,I might be selling my evo 3..and that car won the HPI NY challenge.......and placed in the a main in England at the HPI world finals....how 'bout dat?...

THIS is why I ask you guys! Thanks for saving me 200$.

I initially want to get back into the r/c car world via an electric, but ran across that nitro one and thought it might be a neat way in...once again, thanks for saving me the headache!

Also, there is no 2 speed on the car. You think if the guy was bullshiting about the 2 speed, he wouldn't post a picture of the right side of the car.
