Also check rcmarket and banzai hobby

They have been selling about $~420-450 overseas.

The next iteration should be coming out soon anyways.

Car looks sold out from the 3 majors in HK and on ebay not up anymore. Look for any here on RCTech used or someone might have new sealed one.

It appears this is your best bet to get the car and its only $300 and then you have spare money to make it look very new with spares you can get.

$800 Canadian, $550 US = $724.16 Canadian + 12% tax = $811.05

Like I said.....$800.....My LHS has great pricing.....the car is just expensive and that sucks. I love Tamiya, I just picked up a TRF102 and I was hoping on a TRF419 but it's just a little out of my budget.

I'd check this one out, he is Canada as well, and always has like new or better.

thanks I was just going to post that link, its brand new 419 with all the options you want, square de c hubs, hiro Seiko aluminum screws, Amiya servo horn etc, etc, for $399usd shipped to Canada or usa

Oh I remember zaraz's car for sale and did not see it searching for "TRF419", Shaun, that would be your deal to go for I would think.

It's not Tamiyas fault that the Candian dollar is weak against the US dollar.

Your best bet would be to get it abroad..'since hk retailers are out of stock, try Japanese ones like Banzai

I am not blaming Tamiya for the pricing......as I stated I love Tamiya.........just like I love Ferrari.....I am not blaming Ferrari for their prices either.....just stated that the TRF419 is out of my budget and that sucks.......the car will be used for VTA maybe so it may be a little too much car for its intended use. Maybe I'll look at somthing used. We'll see

Since it's going to be used for VTA why not go shaft? TB04 or EVO 6.

I was thinking that as well. How do those cars stack up against a field of xray t4s? My local club is all Xray other than me and a couple guys that run Tamiya f1s

If you are good you should be just as fast as them . Today I was running carpet with my friend who runs for xray and he is running the new xray . My 419 and my tbo4 exotech was a little faster than his xray .

TRF419 For Sale!!!
 

You have a PM.

people need to shop around better, Canadian $ is comparable to our Aussie. I email my mates up at Pro Shop Futaba and get one for $520 brand new.

For Japanese stuff look in Japan, tower and a main don't trade Japanese stuff at competitive prices in my opinion.
