Mini-Q or Q-jet?
 

Hi there,

I was looking around the net and heard some neat things about the MiniQ, I even saw it in Car Action.....looks like a great car though information is sparse. So I come here to the forums and I see something called a Mini-X..so I check it out...well it looks the same as the Mini-Q or Q-Jet as they call them. I am wondering if the Mini-X is just the north american marketing name for the mini-Q, or if infact there is already a knock off of the Mini-x. So if they are different cars....which came first the Q or the X <<<sorry just a little mini humor for your folks out there.

Here is the link to the Mini-Q/Q-Jet


Anyhow this is my first post on these forums. It's nice to meet you folks...seems like a helpfull bunch....I look forward to spending much time on this forum.
:D

tiny_dealy, welcome to the Forums! The Mini-Q is identical to the Mini-X, just repackaged by another company.

Hey there,

Thanks for the welcome and the info....

Now I am in the know ;)

The Q is a repackaged Mini X sold buy a distributor in Canada. The Mini X is the orig but the cars are identical

Do you know who the distributor is for Canada? Since I live here, it would be nice to see if I can get my boss to bring them in. *work in an LHS*

Other than that, who is the distributor for the US?

Thanks for the info :)

can`t believe they are tring to sell the same car with a different name :o

Intrepid Racing Center is the distributor for the Mini X in the USA and this forum belongs to their largest dealer. I can't recall the name of the Canadian distributor for the Mini Q but he has an add in RCCA. I do know the Q is quite a bit more $ than the X? Must be the cost of the packaging?

Oh I see.........well in a little while I will be getting the Mini-x. Been seeing them for about 2 years+ here in Japan. But well spend 5,600 or 48.00 for these things.

wow 2 years and americans are just getting them!

It is strange, right after the mini-z the came out some time in march and oct of 2000. It was a litle booth at the show and I thought" what the heck are this thing" But seeing them deveople of these last few years has make me one to get one.
