RE: HPI Rush?
If it is a newer Rush Evo with the Roto Start system, I would think it could be worth $150 in very good condition. If it is the older Rush, I wouldnt give him more than $100 for it.
The Rush Evo is on sale right now at Tower for $260 - $25 discount for $235.
For $85 more I would just get a new one.
