need more info then that, do you have the equipments?
Or do you just need the buggy?
Losi are not bad. ofna i guess would be another choice but not as good, kyosho depends where you are parts are hard to find or expensive but car is the better ones out there.

i have no past experience so i need everything...:licker:

if that is the case then 250 dollars will not get you a complete car to play with especially nitro car.

lets just say you buy the cheapest nitro car out now this is a rough cost:

Car: $200 bucks
remote with server: $100
starter box: $60-90
nitro engine: $100-the sky is the limit
fuel: $20-30 bucks depends how large

Just this alone cost you roughly $500 bucks

This is only the chepest stuff, then there is parts because you will break a few parts here and there, also upgrading parts, take it from me, unless you have money roughly 600 bucks I would not get into nitro just yet. Because you will need to know how to tune a car and setup equipment. I have been in rc for a long time I have nitro trucks, buggies, race car, airplane helicopter and I have spent more then $10k you have to really love the hobby and spend lots of money.

Just my 2 cent for you newbies who want to start in this hobby.

My advice save the money you have and save at least 400 dollars more and if you are still intrested then go ahead and buy a car if not at least you will have saved 600 bucks

well if 250 bucks is all you have right now I don't think that will be enough for a mustang unless is a 1/24 scale. hehehehehehe
