You've pretty much already got them in the right order, but...

What's your budget? Are you going to be racing it? Club level or casual? Which one(s) has local parts support?
And specifically which models are you considering?

No need to think about that one, just go for the best there is, Kyosho, although the GS is also a very good buggy. Just go to your hobby store and see what they have and make sure they carry the spare parts. Have fun.
