Nice buy Mr. 'the other skyline driver'.:bleh:

While the EVo has a glorious history, The imprezza is no slouch- esp the Impreza P1.:p
While Honda excels in refinement and reliability, Toyota and Mitsubishi make some of the really robust engines.:cool2:

Its is the Japs who kinda redefined the term 'power to weight ratio'.:p
A german shell with a Jap heart- pure pwnage imho.:p

Skyline is pure redline stuff.:eek:hyeah:

Stock anything- be it cars, processors, bikes, ...- suck.:ashamed:
The look on the face of someone just outgunned by someone with cheaper/'punier at stock' arsenal- priceless.:eek:hyeah:

But i hope i find a 'Stratos' scaled model- i will be floored if it runs too, like your hot rod.:p

Cool stuff Rahul :)
I had a r/c Camaro and Dodge Ram. Expensive affair playing with them though, used to guzzle up 8 AA's in less than an hour.

But the real pride are my Bburago's (around 10 times better than the shoddy Maisto's we get here).
Maybe I'll get get some pics...

hmmm this is the same model with very complicated handling system right ..... it was just awesome ..... remember the top gear episod in which JC vomits after the weird handling test he was doing lol ...... that was a prototype car so finding model will be too damn difficult lol

yeah they drink batteries too fast :D ...... mine last around 30 min the rechargables which came with the car ...... i am planning to make 8 recahrgable pack myself :)

the skyline is autoart ...... and attention to details is just awesome :D .....

anyways comparing Bburago to maisto is not right ..... this maisto is RC while bbugaros are a scaled models ......

Maisto is basically for the enthusiast on a budget willing to sacrifice on a bit of quality for the reasonable value for money. They have absolutely nothing against the sheer quality of Autoart and Bburago.

I used to have one when I was a kid, and I think my bro still has it... you can get a pretty good car for $300 - find someone to bring it from the US :)

actually my brother is going to chicago tomorrow for some work he will be there for 1 month ..... wat do u suggest he is ready to bring me one but he is asking for shop name/address/directions in chicago ...... he said he will be mostly busy with work so can give much time hunting down for one :(
