There are so many great cars, but what's your opinion on which cars were/are the worst. It could be because they were unreliable, cheaply made for the price, poorly designed, impossible to build, highly over-rated or just plain nasty to look at.

TTR sparrowhawk XT
it just looks good,
everything else is hellish
*Speed only 30kmph
*Front shocks leak like a PIG..!!
*useless Servo
*Extremely crap differentials- lock a lot, jam a lot
*Stupid gap in chasis for spur gear - attracts a lot of dirt
*Totally open spur and pinion gear--a lot of stones get stuck here
*plastic spur gear
*Stock slipper clutch settings useless-no slips

I have read that the losi strike is not 'good'.Same goes with the HPI Cyber and Brama(both are buggies).No offence  meant.(HPI or losi)

Well had started the hobby with some chinese cars.

First: the XRC Baja 5b Clone 23cc : Looked awesome, was great running it as well. BUT every 3 min run had some screws missing or some part broken. Never drove it for more than 3 mins without anything falling off. Terrible quality but for the price i bought it new was a steal : 15k for a Brand New Petrol. So the car quality was shitty but the price justifies it.

Second: A Himoto racing 1:10 4WD Offroad Buggy : This car was toooooooo plasticky. the plastic was shit quality, the plastic shock towers would bend if too many spacers were installed in the shock absorbers.

I guess The Quality and Build Quality issue goes the same for all Chinese Branded Cars. - Cheap but Real Poor Quality.
