05 is a great car and i believe 415ms/msx is also a great car, just that i am still trying to find a better setup to run at my local track.

but some facts regarding the two in my own, personal opinion:
you will spend a lot upgrading the 05 (well at least i do). i think my TA05 costs almost the same as my MSX now. so if you can wait, you might want to wait for TA05R or whatever the name is, not sure when will it come out but looking at tamiya's style with the previous TA-series, I'm quite sure we'll see this one.

weight difference between my TA05 and my MSX is approx 150g-200g
