heres mine, but mine is alot dirtier, has a bent shock tower and no spoiler. i had a cheapo onroad nitro r/c for a while, but parts were so hard to find, i gave up on it, and just use the parts for the buggy. this one, surprisingly being a brand name (hot bodies), goes through parts alot quicker. so far ive gone through 2 glow plugs, 2 shock absorbers (one snaped, the other one leaked its oil out omehow), 2 full sets of tires, 2 wheels, 2 reciever battery holders and the thing that holds the spoiler is bashed up pretty bad. the engine is very hard to tune compared to my old one, and sometimes doesn't wan't to start. i took it to the hobby shop and they got it started after about half an hour, and tuned it, or so they said. got it home and it went reeeal slow, i managed to get it going better but its off-the-line performance is really bad and stalls if i floor it under about 20kph. because of all this i rarely use it nowdays.

ive also got one of those between toy grade and hobby grade electric ones that is reasonably fast, but the motor has had its good days and is noticably slower. the tires are bald and because it is 1/14th scale:confused: there are no new tires for it and as far as i can find the manufacturer doesn't make the car anymore.

id consider getting a hobby grade electric r/c because they are alot more reliable, and don't chew through parts quickly, like a traxxas rustler (maybe the vxl:headbang2) but my money is concentrated on my fish ATM. maybe for christmas.
