Kevin, i suggest not getting anything old, or cheaply made thats 1/10 scale or bigger, for the following reasons.
1. Harder to find good aftermarket parts
2. Breaks A LOT
3. your gonna end up spending $1000 just to keep it in working condition, when you can simply spend a bit more and get a good r/c car made from a good company and upgrade that and have it in perfect condition almost 100% of the time.
If you want something thats good lok for the following companies:
For On-Road:
HPI: the Sprint series is really good(as ive heard)
Kyosho: TF-5 series is really good
Tamiya(TT-01 to the TT-04 series) VERY EASY TO FIND PARTS
For Off-Road:
Traxxas: anything goes VERY EASY TO FIND PARTS
Team Associate: anything goes again VERY EASY TO FIND PARTS
HPI: Blitz is kinda good, i personally dont like the way it feels, just too grippy for me
