I will not be surprised to see the 4 will be $450 for the first couple months, but if that is the price for good...........I cannot imagine the price for the loaded 4 prospec will be..........
P.S....another reason why more and more ppl are going for 1/8th, pretty soon, 1/8th will be a lot cheaper then 200mm........
The funny thing is I came from 1/8th scale, I only raced 3 200mm races this year.
That could be a possibility that the future kits might be cheaper, or might not. I don't know since I don't work for Mugen USA nor HRP. I didn't come on to stir things up, but rather to educate the U.S. racers instead. Too many people are quoting cheaper price from outside the U.S. and people think that's the U.S. pricing. And don't matter why our price is potentially higher, we should be buying U.S. kits anyway. If Mugen USA does some kind of future support, recall, upgrades, or what not.... if you are holding an Asia kit, you are SOL.
At the end, dig back to your economics class. Inflation within the last 2 years since MTX3 came out. Gas prices for the boat and trucks.
Maybe each kit in U.S. is autographed by the whole Team Mugen USA!!!
