Which Nitro Touring Car Should I Get??

I'm gonna get a nitro touring car in the near future. I'm debating between a Mugen Seiki MSX-3 or a HPI Nitro RS4. What are the pros and cons of each? I need your help because I'm leaning 50/50 on both cars. Please help me!

Get the HPI, it will be very hard to get parts, spares and upgrades for the mugen and you will have to wait a while for them as well.

speed is not always the best

You would want a car that you can totally change the whole car into aluminum or turn it into the badest racing machine you ever saw.....wow 57.6mph.....but can you turn that thing that those high speeds with out crashing the car?...ge a car that comes with built in hop-ups to help handling...you can make a hpi mini racer go over 50MPH...with alot of money....but can you handle those speeds? get the hpi skyline kit...I garentee you will have fun!...I'm sure you will racers heard this line,but....IT'S NOT ABOUT WHO THE FASTEST ITS WHO CAN DRIVE THERE GAS VEHICLE....you can have the slowest car on the block and still win!!!!! You should do some major saving and go with trinity...they have the tc3-n....and the reflex.......you don't have to be racing to have those....but If you want some things proven to be fast check out the nitro razor,nitro 4-tech,duratrax streetforce,and the ofna ob4, you make your decision..but the most upgradable car I can think of is the hpi skyline....think i'm playin? look at this..THESE ARE NOT MY CARS..I FOUND THESE EVERYWHERE FROM LOOKING ON THE NET..
