What do all you guys feel the strong and bad points to these two cars? Witch is better cause some people are sellimg there rs4 for m18's. I'm leaning toward the rs4 cause hpi's popular and it has good support for other companies( GH, gpm, ect.) Thx Mike

one of the best features of the M18 is that most of the HPI parts (wheels,tires, bodies etc) are interchangeable between the 2 cars. The M18 has shaft driven 4wd, fully independent 4 wheel suspension, and multiple shock mounting positons in the rear to add or remove oversteer.

M18 over a Micro RS4 any day,I have them both.

The M18 stock beats a MRS4 stock,with ease on a track.And when beefed up again the M18 get the win.

Like them both,when you get the optional front and read ball diffs,high performance race chassie,low turn or BL motors they both fly.

Buy the one with the better local parts support.

I love my Micro RS4s and I have spent countless hours tuning and tweaking them, both of them are comparable in performance and controll to a stock M18.

The main thing about the M18 is that any joe can buy an M18 and have a car that runs as smoothly and works as smoothly as the Micro Rs4s I have spent 2 years tinkering with. The Diffs in the M-18 are smoother than even the highest quality most expensive parts you can buy for the Micro Rs4. The only real problem with the M18 is the 150mm wheelbase and the fact that it will cost you $60 to convert it to 140.
