I don't have this exact car, but had a terrible experience with another RC car from the same company so wanted to share.My son got this as a gift for Christmas and within 24 hours of playing with the car, the transmission was stripped and the car would barely move. I have sent emails to the manufacturer a week ago and it took them over a week to respond. After several exchanges, theysaid they could not refund my money. They also said that since they were in Germany, they could not send a new car but they would send a new transmission that I could change myself. This was 6 weeks ago and still nothing. Very shady. Avoid at all costs. Overall a very disappointing experience. I would avoid this car and manufacturer.
