Found a lightly used RSX (looks on Ebay for about the same price as the other options mentioned here.
It is sold by a guy who's also got a couple Kyosho wheelers for sale, which appear to be run very little, if ever...oddly one of them has ~10-15 sets of A-arms, ~5 bodies, bags of gears, extra chassis to go with the flawless chassis on the buggy, and clay tires...for a moment I thought it could be run hard but look clean if it is run on carpet, but no carpet tires.
Anyway, it's always a chance on Ebay, but if it came from one of the wheelers he's selling at the same time, then it should be essentially new.
