Cool photos! I agree, it is a shame losi have not created new 1/10 off road buggies, but saying that, let's be totally honest, the xx4, xxx-cr, and the xxx4...all very good cars in their own ways. I think I actually admire losi for not feeling like they HAVE to just churn out new buggies to satisfy consumer demand,not many other brands have resisted a slightly upgraded version of their 1/10 vehicles every few years, but losi just applied the old 'if it ain't broke, then don't fix it' mentality. I know the xxx4 was intended to superscede the xx4, but they actually ended up creating one buggy for fast hard surfaces and one for loose/rough surfaces.

I feel that this fact,along with brilliant buggies has given the xx's & xxx's the cult status they have...

Really cool looking proto though, and as always, great to see sneak peeks

Keep um coming guys
