    ok heres the run down. the xmod may look good and have AWD but it take some work to keep it running and to make it fast. and also its a toy grade RC not a hobby grade if you want to go fast you need a fair bit of work on either and use non officila hop ups. and some unorthodox mods like the resistors if you run AWD xmods. the mini-z is a great car fantastic quality but a bit more pricy. i deffiently suggest the mini-z. the parts are widly avalible online and are top notch stuff. both need bearings straight away. the xmod the AWD is a suggestion even if it is just for the ball diff for the rear which is a good improvment on the crap it starts with and a ball diff for the mini-z is a good idea . also i suggest alloy wheel nuts (for both) and carbon h plates for a mini-z. also run a set of ni-mh batterys which willl give u more power more run time and cost less becasue you dont need to constantly buy batterys also the mini-z has some great bodys so dont buy the x-mod just for its body kits (which arent that great). to go fast both need a good/pricy motor. and the x mod need lots of work
