Errm...If you want it bluntly...neither. Acme isn't renowned for being a reliable brand, they usually break and aren't made to the best of quality. Chances are, you'll have many issues with your car. I would recommend a reputable brand like HPI, Kyosho, Traxxas or Losi- including others. 
If you do buy new Always remember to break your engine in.

Be thankful you were wise enough to stop by for advise before buying, otherwise you'd be here complaining about the Acme.
Best of luck with you new purchase.

thanks is the hpi gladiator a good reliably car? as i really like the design and it looks like it can take a beating.
I've got several different HPI MTs and cars. Anything HPI is first rate with great support and parts reliability.
Likewise. Not familiar so a link would help.

I didn't think HPI and HSP were a related company in anyway. Do you have a link saying they are cause I'm very interested to know now.

I don't think they are related in any way shape or form. One makes quality kits and the other not so much.

Sorry guys, silly me- They're not related. I was getting mixed up with BSD racing, who, again I don't have proof, but I believe they are a rip off of HPI racing. I think this because of the Logo having nearly Identical text and Spacing, and the fact that they are commonly sold together at HPI retailers. Again, to clarify I DON'T HAVE PROOF, but I think this company is a fake of HPI. Doing further research, I think BSD racing are a rebrand of Redcat racing.
