How? -

How are you guys saying this is a good deal when you don't know what kind of car it is?
If it's a no-name one off parts will be difficult if not impossible to find.
If it's a clone of a popular model it will be a money pit as everything (including the engine) will break quickly and need to be replaced.
Now, as something to re-sell it seems like a good buy regardless. The body will easily get $100+, as will the remote and the wheels/tires. So that's at least $300 resale value, if you want to resell.
But FloJo is talking about buying it to use as a driver. Without positive identification of the make/model I feel saying it is a bargain is a little bit short sighted.
I searched all over the WWW myself and looked at numerous 2wd 1/5 scale cars and have not been able to find this car. In fact the car FloJo pictured has a very minimal and "cheap" looking front top plate as compared to every other car I saw.
My conclusion- it's easily "worth" the asking price in parts alone, but as a driver or worthwhile candidate as a keeper we cannot accurately recommend without knowing more about the car.
Get the guy to send more pics!
