I would definately go for the savage, I have had a .21 for nearly 2 years, and the durability is amazing, so far I have only had to replace 1 front bulkhead and that was from a particularly nasty meeting with a log a wot. This was also my first mt so i'm sure you can imagine it has taken a lot of abuse whilst I have been learning to control the landings. Also with the .21 the speed is more than acceptable so I can only imagine the 25 is gonna be good...

If you can afford it the 4.6 is the way to go. Stronger drivetrain components and a bigger engine. Plus, you get to build it.

with the 4.6 If you use the stock tires you can't run on concrete [] It'll tear them up in a second
