5 xmods

3 370z's POS's 1 is a motor tester/dyno queen, 1 is a parts car, and 1 is brand spanking new nib. 1 awd gen 1 chassis I got today. And 1 gen 1 ive been building through the year. All aluminum, 4 wheel steering brushless, lipo, and awd all being built by me. Im even winding the motor myself. Ive been into xmods since they came out and as time ands money rolled along ive built some insane cars. 55mph street driven xmods, hobby grade swaps, and today I finished a customer car. 2.4 ghz, v2 board, a motor and lipos built by me, and rewired by me. All you need to know is that it pops wheelies on demand. And its AWD...

truck series all the way

i like the truks cuz i always wanted a truck and you can do more upgrades i personally like the hummer H2. the street series is horrible because there are no body kits so your xmod is always stock

favorite car/troubling observance

My favorite xmods is the Generation 1 Skyline; its a work of art when you start mixing & matching the wheels & tires to get the desired look. The street versions are doing away with our freedom to express ourselves; why would you tamper with what makes this an exceptional hobby and line. If you cant customize it what makes it different from all the other lines; the answer is nothing! I chose this line over all the others for that reason alone, just like so many others. Somebody needs to make Radio Shackand the Xmods company understand that, as well as learn to market this openly so its not a secret. If this was a line at one of there competitors there would be 3 in every home by the beginning of summer. I just hope thatbefore they try to fase them out for good this time somebody will take this model rc line where it needs to go, back to what made it a success in the beginning.

All the Xmods Street line

Hi, so as you can see, I like all the models the Xmods Street line. All except the 1965 Mustang. I don't really like Mustangs made between the 1960s. But I do like like the 2010 Mustang, it's awesome. I'm just a car freak, I don't have just one favorite car nor only one car I want to have. But old Mustangs don't really grab my attention. Even though though the new modern Mustangs get their style from the old ones, the modern ones are on my favorite car list. The only thing I don't like about the Xmods Street line is that they have built in frequencies instead of crystals. What really sucks is that these awesome cars can't be made more awesome because there's no body kits for them. Even though they have disadvantages, they're really awesome. Thanks for taking your time for reading my favorite Xmods and I hope to get your answer soon. Sincerly, Luis Martinez

Mustang

I have the gen1 mustang and the evolution mustang. guess which street series one Im going to get? I get them more because I'm a mustang fan. As r/c cars, their OK. I run them around the house sometimes for kicks if the weather is bad.
