Popular Post Kpowell911 Posted April 17 Popular Post Share Posted April 17 Im currently building/painting/stickering the white colourway version of this. Its taking a while and is costing a fair amount in paint etc. so when I saw the black one built and painted to a decent standard for cheapish I went for it. Bit dusty, and the body posts need a trim but Tamiya and Porsche are a match made in heaven 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 One of these has been on my “list” for ages, but considering I had the Black Edition, I wasnt willing to pay the £450-500 they are in the UK. Last week these were Tamico’s deal of the week. I paid £246 inc postage and then some customs. Just under £300 all in is more like it! Now what? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks bud, it was an expensive purchase but a bit of a bargain in comparison to what the chap who owned it before me spent building it.

Aint it, same spec as a trx4 sport but with lights and a winch out of the box, and apparently all the main parts are cross compatible. I am going to a hobbywing foc motor, fit a more powerful steering servo and change the wheels and tyres and should be just as capable as my trx4, i do have some weighted parts and will see if these fit but not sure of yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does I think I’ll get one ordered. Been on the lookout for another 1/10 crawler after my boy has finally shown some real interest in the RC’s with the trx4.
