I am just getting ready to buy an MBX5, I wonder what's the price difference between this one and the regular MBX5? Nice find yet again HB, I know we can always count on you for the latest buggy info. Damn, now the dilema, get the regular MBX5, or wait and get this one. Actually you suck Blazer, lol.

I'd hold off and get this one...you will most likely end up buying most of those parts down the road anyway despite the fact that the non-PROSPEC version is tough as hell.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I bet it still comes in cheaper than the K3, lol.

If you read my last post in the HB Lightning Pro thread, I am FN sick of not being able to get parts. I've been thinking of a KII or III, but I have to say this new MBX5 Prospect just might win the race. Looks real nice! Nice find Blazer!

Looks nice, KIII is a rip off and waste IMO.... KII best kit for money. Hope this comes in low, then it will be best for the money...

The metal rear wheel hubs are really nice looking. I wish the Fioroni stuff came in that nice silver colored annodizing instead of the blue.

Nice kit! Damn that thing looks nice! Wonder if it will come full in a kit form or if you will have to buy the upgrade kit along with the regular kit.

Very nice... got to be damn expensive though. Do they sell a complete upgrade kit? I'm sure they sell it part by part... they would have to.

dunno but it is damn sexy! It would make sense they would offer a upgrade kit for us MBX-5 owners.

God that thing is just SICK. Ugh, makes me want to sell my buggy, my car, my house, my dog, my g/f, everything. Just to make sure I could afford a whole fleet. That thing is just bad ass, no questions asked. I don't know how anyone would want anything else. :fro:
