My top five (but in no particular order):
IRC Vulcan SE - This 1/16 scale Chinese nitro buggy was my first hobby grade RC. It was a pain in the ass back then, but I always regretted selling it. Now I regret buying another one!
Original RC10 Worlds - I bought this a few years ago and raced it on carpet for a while. It's currently in pieces in a bin under my shelf, that counts right?
Losi Micro T - Its just adorable. I remember I always wanted one after seeing it in RCCA in 2004(?). Finally got my hands on one and it is absolutely everything I hoped it would be.
RC10 B6.2 - My current 2wd racer, I had all of the blue bits anodized purple and I put a JConcepts Illuzion body on it. It almost looks like a Turbo Optima Mid!
Losi XX4 - My 4wd racer. I just love the way it drives. It competes pretty well against modern 4wd buggies and everyone gets a kick out of seeing it on the track.

Tough question to answer, ill give it a stab
1. Kyosho Lazer ZXS
2. Kyosho Lazer ZXS Evolution
3. Yokomo WCS 93
4. Yokomo Pavidis 97
5. Tamiya TRF 503
Plenty of other cars I could swap into the list, this is where I am at at the moment, it changes all the time but the top 3 would be consistent

I forgot about those little guys! I think I had more fun with it than any other RC I ever owned. We had an epic oval track series going at my work, with 3 or 4 races each day. I made a small, laughably crude, paper "traveling trophy" that went to whoever won the most recent race. I still have that trophy on my desk after all of these years.

Thats awesome! I recently had some fun running it on my local indoor 10th scale track. Each lap took an eternity, but it was a blast for sure just making it around the track.

My dogfighter works 91 to 93 hybrid.
My tq10
My original schumacher atom (where I started)
My Terra Scorcher

Although, my losi xxx is really fun to drive epecially when beating modern buggies.

that is a difficult topic for me...
- Marui Samurai
- Kyosho Optima (would be hesitating between my Turbo Optima and Javelin)
- Kyosho Turbo Scorpion (although I could be tempted to put the Tomahawk here, but same as the Optima, there is so much in common between the 2 I'm cheating and making it one single spot)
- Marui Coors (or Ninja or Shogun, but the versatility of the Coors makes it in there)
- Hirobo Zerda
It's actually very tough to get 5 only... specifically because many of them are actually meaningfull for me for more than a reason... And what about the Nichimos : for me they have a very special spot. And there is no Tamiyas in my list, but if one would make it it would be probably the Lunhcbox for a lot of reasons... And the Marui Hunter have a very special spot as well for me... Very hard, actually
So hard, and here I only considered the cars I have here, not the one I would like to get at some point...
