Pros:
- Usually easy to get parts
- Parts are reasonably priced relative to other cars (all rc car parts are overpriced)
- With the p-dub bumper the car is very durable. In 6 months of running the car in super stock Ive actually never broken a part (except blades). Ive worn parts out but not broken any
- Fits just about any lipo
- More affordable then a lot of cars
- Its Team Associated so they will likely support the car for a long time

Cons:
- Pinion is difficult to change
- Shocks arent the greatest, lots of people have difficulty with them leaking
- Lots of people seem to melt the plastic outdrives on the diffs, if you switch to aluminum the blades tend to break easily.
