You can get it cheaper if you can find one at your local KB Toys. I saw one just the other day.

I have one. It is almost accurate in vibe shape.Remote control consists of a wired controller with two options:1 - forward 2 -backward and turn at the same timeMine is yellow

Mine is all grey. They only have those 3 as far as I know, the grey, the white, and the yellow. That's the only one's I've seen anyways.

It's a shame it's such a cheap RC model. but. i'll have to get one anyways. I'm kinda dumb like that. you should see how many Land Cruiser toys I have. i'm wanting a good plastic model of a VIBE GT.

Gee, I was all excited but the forward/reverse&turn is lame.

notice also it's a wired remote, they are the cheapest of the cheap. I haven't been able to find the die-cast ones around here yet, except for the matchbox ones. of which I have about twenty or so

There's just 2 buttons - forward and reverse. When you hit forward, it goes (mostly) straight, and when you hit reverse it goes backwards and turns to one side at the same time.It's usually done with a little wheel on the bottom that swivels depending on whether it goes forwards or backwards. So they have just one motor for forward/reverse.I want to know where trdvibe got all that stuff! I want a big 1:18 scale or whatever it is Vibe!

phil has the GT-R in red though. it goes along with my billions of vibe, tundra, and now my one LGT model. always have to stop at wally mart to check and see if they have any more. I should sell a few of the copies though, I think i have just about 2, maybe 3 of everything. but my micro R/C voltz is my fave...
