Default tc

As I see it, you've allready done your shortlist, but just let me update that a little

Mi4 - this has a new lipo chassis for it
Xray T3 - brand new, but they're sold pretty much as soon as the shops take delivery, and they tend to release a new spec version every single year
TC5R - the oldest of the three, but not by much. It's the car I drive and can highly recommend it, as with all three, it's getting the setup right as they're all tending to look alike now, apart from the schumacher which has some weird motor clamping thing in place which I really don't like the look of, but others love.

The xray is going to be the more expensive, the Mi4 comes prebuilt or as a kit, the TC5R comes as a kit, and although associated normally use imperial measurements, ever since releasing the 5, they've used measurements that match up with the metric equivalents.

Hope this helps

Next - bodyshells, which is a lot easier choice, Stratus 3.0, Mazda Speed 6 or the 9R, all protoform shells, just choose the prettiest one.
