Interesting timing for my question... so, I've been running the HPI BMW M3 body (HPI7352) for a long while now and I like it ok. The two complaints I have with it is that the front wheel arches are pretty low and thus rub on tires if you fit the body as it should be (aesthetically speaking). The other complaint I have is that it doesn't fit a T4 too well, the front sticking out too much and requiring two layers of impact sponge strips.

So... I'm thinking of trying a new body. Anyone with a T4 that can recommend something that fits well? Or, in general, any popular body that I should try out for it's handling characteristics? I prefer 190mm. I hear the RX7 is a good option and/or maybe a 911. I prefer HPI bodies over Tamiya, though I've been tempted by the Tamiya Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 (51534)... hm.


Thanks!
