Default Dark Impact vs. Keen Hawk

Hi guys,

I was thinking about buying either a Tamiya Dark Impact or a Keen Hawk. I was looking at towerhobbies.com and they have both in stock but the keen hawk is more expensive. I was looking at the descriptions and i didn't really see much of a difference. Is there something i'm missing or will i be fine if i go with the Dark Impact because it's cheaper. Right now i'm driving an old Kyosho buggy that the claim to have no knowledge about and i've beat the crap out of it and i figured that it's time for something new. Any advice on which buggy to go with?? Pro's Con's of each???

Thanks

they are exactly the same - different colour wheels and different shells is about all the differences there are. It just depends which shell style you like .

same parts yeah, I have both cars at home and they are identical. If you don't care about the looks then go for the cheapest. I prefer the keenhawk shell myself but the impact shell has a more serious 'racey' look
