Very nice, is this the 8.0?Very sweet looking ride, is that the stock paint?

Okay, I have a few more questions, I am just looking for opinions, I did do a lot of "window" shopping, and I realy like the Savage, and the beast the best in looks and in customer reviews.
So,should I be looking at the 1/10, or will I be dissappointed that I didn't get 1/8 size, and, realistically, would I be setting myself up by buying a used one, or should I buy new to save any potential heartburn? And lastly, are the RTR kits good kits?(good radios, and such).

Thanks for letting me bend your ears.
