Well, there were a lot of variations, and no exact formula, so no--it's worth the same either way. Your car was released at the peak of AE's market share, which makes it really common, not a bad thing just a common one

Not knocking that car at all, it would make a great runner, racer IMO--and the radio gear with patience can be had on the bay cheap

it would fetch under 80 on the bay IMO, but is a very nice rc10! I say keep it, and enjoy it!

Stay over a 8.5 and you are ok as long as your diff and slipper are set right, but the same applies to a new B4 as well-

Brushless can go from mild to wild. Just because something is brushless dosen't mean it is insane and going to tear stuff up, though some can. The stealth transmission is tough. If you use say less than a 4600Kv motor and 7.2 - 7.4 volts you should be fine.
