I see. I guess it depends on how we use our cars. I'm not at all serious regarding racing and competition. In that aspect I realize there are much more durable and better, less complex, designs available. It appears Tamiya kits aren't really designed for competition, not in off-road anyway, perhaps those upgraded TT-01 and 02.

I will just have to buy the BBX and see. This far I had the most fun with my DT-02 Holiday Buggy. It's simple with close to zero adjustment points. Still I love the complex and realistic, yet fragile design of the SRB chassis like Sand Scorcher and Super Champ. For me "over engineering" means stuff like the Traxxas TRX-4 with gears, lights, portals and turning rear wheels, pretty much any car that can't be run with less than two channels.

I'm very much liking the Golf.  For me the 1970-1990's Hot Hatches just look so much "tougher" than hatchbacks today.

I can definitely see the BBX has taken some styling cues from the Super Champ/Fighting Buggy.

Sorry but for me, the bbx is a mix of wild one and dt02. Nothing compared with srb. And full cheap plastic for 400€ not for me.

I thinks it will be the Celica Rally , the Golf and possibly the Porsche for me. 

I 'm sorry Tamiya , but I'd rather spend the BBX money on another Kyosho Beetle - and get some change for the VW Golf.

Hi Flo, I’ve already started to see the price of the BBX coming down.
I’d like to get one, but I think I’ll wait for it to come out and see where the price settles.

I hope it will be more fiable than the falcon... they share the same architecture.

You don't see a lot of Funco buggy (& therefore SRB) from 1/4 back?

They are very ugly.
I prefer the 80's ones. Like your rough rider or the grasshopper1  design.
