Who has a Megatech Nitro Razor XT?

I just read the article in RCCA about the new Megatech Nitro Razor XT and it sounds like a sweet (and fast) car!

Does anyone have one of these yet? I am seriously thinking about buying one. If I did race it, it would be at my local Hobbytown and they wouldn't care about the .16 engine... plus I wouldn't need a Mugen or a Serpent to compete there. I do want something nice though, not a heap. After reading the article, the Megatech car sounds pretty nice to me.

I have a Futaba Super 3PJ radio and of course I was looking into getting a kit for my first nitro TC but after pricing it out I'm having second thoughts:

HPI Racer 2 - $250
OS CVR - $160
PCM Rx w/ crystal - $100
2 Hitec digital servos - $160
Rx pack - $30
Body - $25
Wheels and tires - $50

$775 is a bit steep for a hardcore dirt guy like me!

If I bought this Megatech car for $330 I could be running and having fun right away then I could slowly add the servos and Rx of my choice later

what do you all think about this?

thanks in advance for your replies

Someone must have at least seen one of these things! If not, has anyone read the article and formed an opinion on this car?

How is the aftermarket for this car?

thanks
