I want to buy a green or orange Murcielago body in the US. When will I be able to buy one at a reasonable price?

Check with the VA Beach Hobbytown - They posted back on May 11th that they had the Green Murcielago in stock - Hope this helps!

Well, I am still waiting for the US release of the green Murcielago. I'm soooo tempted to pull the trigger on the one on ebaY for $58..... Damn, that's so expensive.

Both the DB9 and LP500 are a month and a half away from being available in Hong Kong, so probably another 2 and a half to 3 months to wait.

A picture of someone's FXX in japan. Found it here: http://ameblo.jp/dnano/page-1.html#main. It's in japanese, but google translate gives a general idea. Pretty interesting.

nice... did u get the fitting parts set as well? with Mini-Z, Kyosho can design any body for a chassis type and throw it on but with dNaNo its a bit more complex since none of them are the same (relative to fitting parts). each model is as much like the full size version as possible so releasing a body means releasing a chassis for it to fit on.

Exclamation Lamborghini Gallardo

got the gallardo in a couple days ago... also got the white enzo & white carrera. i've got fitting parts for just about everything except the gallardo & carrera. i'm doing my best to make sure we have the largest selection available... u can't imagine how tough that is.

Will the DB9 be a mid or rear motor? Does anyone have enough experience with these to be able to determine if the differences are as noticeable as with their big brothers?

It's more the wheelbase because of the motor mount position that affects performance.

The MM chassis tend to be more stable because of their longer wheelbase, and the RM chassis tend to be more agile because of the shorter wheelbase. You can tell the difference in the chassis, but I'm not convinced one is really all that much faster, you just need to find one that suits your natural driving style.
