Yeah its pretty sick, full details right down to the gram light wheels.
Yokomo apparently has some advan wheels available as well which is pretty cool.

$380 is MSRP, they sell for much lower.

They aren't that big either. They are 1/10th scale which is pretty much what most of the nitro / rc cars are.

I still can't find any online store or otherwise that has that N1 FD3S in stock yet...
Guess I'll need to play the waiting game for a bit...

N1 FD3S body is available at the site below, but not from Yokomo. A different company.

www.speedtechrc.com

Steve will take care of ya. $200 for the Yokomo drift kits and another $125-200 for running gear.

You're in luck, Yokomo will offer a nitro drift kit soon using their existing GT4 chassis. I used to run one a while back.

I have a micro RS4 1/18 scale FD. Pretty fun if I must say, PVC pipes on the tires, slide the thing around like its on ice. Quiet enough to do it in a neighborhood without getting snapped at for having a loud *** nitro.

Never had a cop tell me to stop running my nitro car in my 6 yrs of the hobby. But I always ran it on a non-busy side street or at a local park. I've had like two neighbors to tell me to quiet it down though. I hardly run RC cars any more though.
