It's depends on what you use it for. If you're using it for racing, then it will worth the money, but if you're just using it for messing it around, then just save your money, if you really want to move on to Mini-Z, then start with the AWD (MA-010) they are better for general use.
The Mini-Z 2.4GHz are ASF, so you'll need to get a transmitter that have ASF system or a transmitter that allow you to use a 2.4GHz ASF module, in order for you to use it with your 2.4GHz Mini-Z. The chassis require 4 AAA batteries just like Xmods, battery for the transmitter will be depends on which transmitter you get. A standard Mini-Z 2.4GHz ASF transmitter is the KT-18, it require 4 AAA batteries, it's actually a pretty decent transmitter. First thing you want to upgrade will be the tires. Stock tires have no grip, get some Kyosho 30's up front and 20's in the rear. Next thing will be replace the plastic "bearings" to the metal ball bearings. Then you can move on to suspensions and differential and work you're way up. There are a huge section of bodies you can choose from, depends on the type of body you're looking to use, you might need to change the wheelbase of the chassis, make it wider or narrower and correct off-set rims. Some people prefer the MR-02 over MR-03 and some people prefer the MR-03 over MR-02. So that will depends on the person.

Why are you getting the 2.4ghz remote.? Im asking because it sounds like you want to use it for your Xmods... The remote will do you no good without a 2.4ghz car.... If you want to replace your Xmods for a better driving car but don't want to spit out a lot of money for a race car like an MR-03, you should just buy the RTR 2.4ghz iwavers, they perform a lot better than any Xmod, and are half the cost of a Mini-Z, and they come with a 2.4ghz remote (RTR) you can use Mini-z bodies on them alsom so you have lots of options. If you don't want an iwaver, then a used MR-02 is a good suit also... you can get them on ebay or somthing, or trading and stuff on the forum.... If you got the cash and like top of the line, go for the MR-03... and a 2.4ghz remote, it will be a substanial amount of money for a car to drive around the house..

Its a ready set, so it will comes with the transmitter.
"Full readyset all in one package, INC: Painted body, Wheel type PERFEX 2ch Radio,Stock motor,Eco Motor, 3 Optional pinion gears inc, NEW I series 2 MR-021 Chassis MM" If you buy an ASC set, then it will comes with a dummy chassis, it's only a display chassis, no suspension, no electric.

The one you posted in the link, is an AM MR-02, which mean it's not wireless. If you're planning on getting an AM MR-02, I'll recommend you to get a used one from forums, or ebay, since majority of the people are getting rid of their AM to get into 2.4GHz.

thanks for pointing that out
and what about this : im willing to trade all my remaining xmods : 7 bodies 2 roller chassis 1 full chassis GPM parts wheels, electronic packages and parts galore all for a mini Z mr-03 this way it helps me get rid of my xmods too but now to find a trader :/ (dont know if this is against forum rules?? ) so basically what your saying winner is thats not a good deal for a new one? well i guess its back to the drawing board! Thanks Michael
