What are you going to do with it? Bash or race or both?
If you're going to race, I'd go for the B4.1 but not an RTR. You'd want to get your own electronics as RTR on most any brand vehicle are junky.
If you're going to bash, find a Traxxas Bandit if you want a 2wd buggy.
If you're going to do both, that's a tough call 'coz nobody makes a good basher/racer combo IMHO.
