guys i just thought of a simple equation..
GPM=aftermarket xmods parts...
if xmods=discontinued forever.. then
a) xmod price skyrocket and we make a fortune(mentioned before)
b) GPM discontinues their xmod parts and GPM xmod parts SKY ROCKET LIKE CRAZY.. especially the Rare Colors like Green...
c) I should have never spend $300 of my xmas money on a charger/lipo batts/other stuff for my other r/cs thaz mean i need to make some moneh
d) Zippo is gonna be rich like CRAZY with his huge collection
e) Happy New Years Everyone!!

Of course, the Mini-Z!

Xmods will only become worth what someone will pay for them. Its going to be hard to make a fortune because if prices get too high people might as well just purchase the higher quality Mini-Z.

For driving outside, I now have purchased a Micro-t. I find it much more fun than my Xmod evo I used to drive outside.

Geez guys seriously? THis is only like the 6th time xmods have been "discontinuted" They run certian bodys for a while, and then they discontinue them and bring out new bodys. Think back to day one when it was only a civic available.... its discontinued now.. and look what came next!

Xmods isnt dead, and probably never will be, im sure radioshack will keep producing them untill they fail so bad they are actually losing money on them. Sit tight and just wait for the new series/bodies.

I was just on the Radio Shack site a few minutes ago and they have no listings for any XMods or their accessories! I sent them an email asking what's going on; hopefully they'll reply soon.

Upset because I just yesterday bought the '65 Mustang for $24.99 and wanted the light kit next and my son-in-law was planning on getting the Challenger. Why would they just drop them without warning?!! The store manager said they were continuing them; sounds like he either lied or didn't know what Radio Shack was up to.
