I mean you almost get a whole new car for 200.00. Granted it's half the price of a whole new car but wold you rather spend 400.00 one year then 200.00 the next for the complete upgrade or 400.00 every year on a new car and then 400.00 every year for the next 2-3 years for upgrades? Its the same difference either way.

Can't argue with that, they did the right thing with the upgrade kit.
It's nice that they released improved cars, and a testament to their excellent R&D. Other cars get better with time too, thanks to people getting more familiar with them, learning new things, and continuing to develop the platform. How long does a car from a company like XRay actually stay in the hands of the pro drivers before they're off testing the next great thing? Are any of the kits really given a chance to realize their full potential? The people buying them that don't/can't keep up with the next greatest thing would really want to know.
But that's a tiny distinction, and I'm sorry this turned into a XRay bashing thread. I think they're great cars, and I'd buy one myself if I thought it was the right choice for me, or would make a bit of difference in my results.
