It is sort of ho-hum but actually you're getting a ton of stuff for $40 or $50 more. Not bad but not a game changer or anything AE should be bragging about.

After a couple of months of kicking tires, I guess this new car has my mind made up. Yep I'm getting one! With all the goodies its a good investment! Plus side I still have my crate of buggy tires!

It would have been more impressive if Associated released a new 4wd car today.

I was wondering last few months too as I wanted a metric hardware car, but maybe I don't care to see one too soon as I never thought one is coming out for at least 6 months from now.

So I bought a brand new B44.3 at Tower and the Schelle chassis to shorten it and make it really work well. The Tower price was effectively $238 after discount and all the gift certificates with ecash and the $20 promo one with the car.

CE edition, nice update but give us the entire bad to the bone shock package instead of doubling up our inventory of diffs and slippers.

I hate seeing 2wd kits for over 300 dollars.

I'm looking to buy a stock 17.5 buggy soon, and it actually seems like a better idea to buy the factory lite and spend the extra $50 on Kashima shocks than it would be to buy the CE and spend another $58 on the lightweight chassis.

Not everyone likes the lightweight chassis, just remember that before you go and buy the chassis. May want to run the buggy first. I know many who have bought the regular chassis for their lites

I didn't know that, thanks for the tip. What is it that they don't like, too much flex or not enough weight down low?

I like the new B5M CE. Seems like a good deal, IMHO...

Says it even comes with a 4gear, but pictured with a 3 gear. Must be pretty dialed!
