Team Durango DNX408 Sold Out!

[jimmy]

Team Durango have news that all stock of the first batch of DNX408 1/8th scale nitro buggies are sold out to their respective distributors and shops.

TD:

Sorry, but the ‘408’s that are out there out with distributors and on there way to shops now (1st batch) plus what’s soon to be out there (later in December, 2nd batch) is all that we are likely to be able to get until March.
We tried our best for this not to happen - We got forecasts in advance off all the distributors world wide, which is based on what they expected their market needed from seeing our pre-release photos. In most cases the distributors estimate high to make sure they get what they need and to hold some in stock.


Durango then ordered based on that total, plus some for stock for the first batch – but with the pace the car showed at the WC they where SOLD OUT before even being packed. Before going to Pattaya we gambled on ordering a second batch (same quantity) for holding in stock, that batch is SOLD OUT as well.


The bottom line is that Durango is sold out of the DNX408 until around March, so if you want a DNX408 you’ll have to reserve one of the ones that’s out there or soon to be out there with the shops and distributors that trusted in Team Durango.

Yep they were there, and from what I read they had a bit of a pig of a time. TBH I think it's a bit of great marketing, we have been waiting so long and teesed with photos and a car going (WELL) round the track in the last few nationals, that all cars in shipment sold, Job done on the marketing front. wait to see what we mere mortals think of it now

have to say it's sweet on the eye, but the Agama is kinder to the credit card...

You got an MP9 listed in your sig and the MP9 is $200 - $300 more than the DNX and only $50 more than the dex410 which is one very big seller. Never know, they may nring out a dnx408r like they did with the dex.

Haha best get that off there, kyosho long gone, and I could only afford a second hand one

I think the car is well worth it's money, machining etc looks great. It was just a comment...not a dig

[Mr. Red]

Some kind of new marketing or what. Can anyone actually Tell how many units one batch consist of?
Dont get me wrong. If I liked smelly noisy cars I would deffo go for the Dnx408. Looks the part. Love it actually.
