what do you want to do with it??? bash, race??? Then how much?? $1000 or $500??? RTR or Kit??? THe mugen is a kit and with good things will cost about 1000ish dollars... the best rtr, Ofna Hyper 7 PCR/PBS. I have the pbs, it is very fast, handles great, and i love mine! get the april issue of RC Driver it does a great review of it!!!

K3, K2, MBX5, or H7. Any of them will treat you fine for racing and/or bashing.
I personally picked up an H7 PBS. Stock out of the box, it is a great basher and will get you around the track if you're racing. You can upgrade as you see fit too. In hindsite, I wish I would have just picked up the PRO. But I didn't know the 1/8 bug would bite me as hard as it did.
