This review is from: RC Mercedes Speed Demon 4WD Racing Car Radio Remote Control 1:10 (Toy)

I bought this car because my brother is 12 and completely obsessed with cars. After a few races against his cheaper cars, we realised just how much faster it was. This car almost underestimates itself; it has double wishbone suspension, proper 4WD and a really powerful motor.It also handles better than any other RC car I have seen. I noticed quite quickly that although it was good in most other respects, it has a rather bad battery life of about 7 minutes. It doesn't quite go 18 mph, more like 12, but it is still very fast.

After a few days of using it, one of the suspension springs got stuck. A few weeks later it snapped off so the back of the car hung down and the front wheels spun endlessly. Fortunately, it was a quick fix with duct tape and wire, so it was soon working super fast again.

The Mercedes Speed Demon- fast, thirsty and loud- but massive fun

i made the desision to buy this after seeing that it went 20mph. believe me, it can reach that speed after a few seconds. it is extremely manueverable, and the controller has good range. one of the most fun cars i have ever owned. i like the headlights, too.
However, DRIVE IN A WIDE, OPEN AREA. this car does great id places like big parking lots and asphalt playgrounds. whatever you do, DO NOT DRIVE ON THE SIDEWALK!!!!! i made the mistake of doing this, and it totaled the thing. the steering is either straight or full turn. i tapped the steering wheel a little too long, and the car went off to the curb in a blink of an eye, and crashed into the wheel of a parked car at full speed. i then discovered the crash dislodged a wire or something, and it could only turn right.(the casing was alright.) i took it apart, and can't figure it out. the breaking was probably my fault, though.
this is a good car, just don't drive in a small space.

The RC car performance and speed is more than adeacuate, but the control set is prompt to breakage. It is poorly builded. I do not recommended this product because of it.
