Default Exceed reviews appreciated!

[&:]How is the Exceed's durability? I can't seem to find many user reviews... Can anyone give me anything on this buggy? Other than a battery and charger upgrade is this vehicle a hundred dollar piece of crap or a decent buy? Just for a newbie in the yard...
Thanks

They seem good. Go to the Exceed/Recat forum and ask there.

Exceed is a cheap buggy that will probably be hard to find replacment parts for. I'd go with a big name company such as Traxxas, Duratrax, Kyosho, Associated, Losi...

He might not have $400 to spend on a 4WD buggie and for $100 it doesn't look like a bad deal... and the parts are the same as the redcat buggies and they are the least expensive I have seen sofar.

GET THE RUSTLER. It is the best i have seen and can be upgraded with a better motor esily. You dont even have to change muck to go with a brushless set like the mamba. The rustler was built tough and cheap. You wont regret it.
