I will get it for nostalgia's sake but to be honest, the Avante wasn't a great performer. I had one back in the day, it looks really nice but the parts were fragile and the handling couldn't keep up with the Yokomo, Schumacher and Kyosho buggies of the day. It is said that the re release will feature updated parts that will be more durable than the old parts but performance wise, i think it's still gonna be the same. It wasn't all that great back in 1988 so i don't think it's gonna be any better now.
