When I read "micro-t copy" and went to the link I also saw this:
XMOD COPY:EZTEC SubaruŽ WRX/Mitsubishi EVO8 1:32 RC Car
(http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3922671#)
Might be good for mods since 1:32 is pretty close to 1:28(xmod). My friend used those old Nikko Lamborghini/Porsche/Ferrari/Ford 1:32 an put it on his corvette and it seemed to fit nicely. However, the body definatly looks cheap,flimsy, and not proportional. It may have both the WRX and the EVO for racing, because there are some hints of a pair and others of just one. Does anyone who's been to RS recently know?

So,this seem like a decent deal for $15.

Emm, im sorry but i disagree, it cannot be an Xmod Copy, because of the following reasons:
1) 1:28 and 1:32 may seem close in numbers, but its a huge difference.
2) It only shows 2 frequency settings available(Xmods have 12)
3) Doesnt seem like you can remove the rims, or even upgrade it.
4) Seems very ugly compared to Xmods

Wow! Someone sure is fidgety today! I'm sorry but I also disagree! Well, yeah but copies are never the same or too similar.
1)Well, duh but isn't that the whole point of xmods? 1:24 is also 4 scales off, yet we the modders still make it work. (Here's some math help just for you: 28-4=24 & 32-4=28!) Wow!
2)Xmods now have fixed channels, but again, we the modders changed that. The same can be said about EZTEC's cheap RCs!
3)Emm, well any part can be screwed or chopped off! You haven't even seen the back of the wheel, yet! Also there's the wonderful thing we call Paint!
4)Well, duh! I also stated "However, the body definatly looks cheap,flimsy, and not proportional." And that it "Might be good for mods" so you could use the spoiler,wheels,decals,etc.
:lol: :p :lol:

hey man i saw these at the stores a few months back, when cars were 30 the last time...i thought they looked kinda cool, probably be fun for the garage or small spaces...the evo is grey with black graffix and black wheels...i do think the parts are a little small for switching tho

Wow, the 350Z looks nice actually! All of them are kinda fat and low.

Just as a BTW, the only legit Xmods copy known is the RealDrive Mini:

http://www.accu-maxx.de/images/product_images/original_images/4628_0.jpg


But even that's not a real clone since that company and RadioShack (apparently) share a few bodies since the person who created Xmods also created the RealDrive Mini.
