Funny you mention this car, as I've been eyeballing the 58513 release from 2012. It certainly would be great to get the car for less than $200, versus well over the $300 it takes today.

I recall when sales of 5813 had slowed down a bit, so they discounted them to help move them off the shelves. I was a bit "iffy" on the TT-02 chassis and thought I'd rather hang out for an original, plus I was more into hard bodied Tamiya RC kits stuff back then. So I didn't grab one at the sales prices I spotted around the place. I could now kick myself for not pulling the trigger on one .. the prices asked today are STUPID!
