Need help Identifying more pics added!
Can anyone name this newly acquired used car? I am not sure what it is, but it seems to handle very well and is also very adjustable! Also, if you happen to have parts, let me know!

It does look like it is similar to both of those cars, however, the front suspension is completely different. I am leaning more towards hpi, however, this car is slightly smaller than my other 10th scale cars.

The chassis is very similar to the HPI RS4 however, the front suspension and differentials are still very different.

Added more pictures, looked all day, still can't find another one. I like this car, but I am afraid to drive it for fear of breaking a part I cannot replace!

It has dogbones, the car to the left is a losi xxx-s and the one to the right is a losi mini desert-truck. I am thinking that makes this one 12th scale, but I am not sure. It has a very close wheelbase to my Tamiya m03-m swift. As soon as I can find parts, I will drive the tires off this thing! It handles better than any of my others after I dialed it in! The front suspension does have adjustable caster as well as camber. This is what makes this one hard to Id for me.

I am really leaning towards HPI, however, can't find any exact matches. The servo that came in it is an HPI servo, but I am not sure if that was stock or if someone just used one they had laying around.
