RX8 or MMM combo?

[Unsullied_Spy]

I would really like to drive an RX8 system before really making up my mind. I talked to the guys at my LHS yesterday and they are getting in an RX8 combo but they won't be offering a test Buggy to put it in. This is really unfortunate, I've heard that all you have to do is drive one to want one but that extra $70 would get a very nice BL ESC for my Micro...
