Default HPI RTR Micro RS4 Drift Mazda RX-7???

Did I miss something? I know I have not been on the boards that much lately... and I was just checking out Towerhobbies just announced section and I found this:
HPI RTR Micro RS4 Drift Mazda RX-7
[link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LNNXR0&P=G]http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LNNXR0&P=G[/link]
Is there any info out there on these? I checked HPI's site but did not see them... but I could have just missed it...

Tower has a few drift mirco RS4s listed and a few "sport" ones listed... new listing so I am sure the price will drop as they get closer to stocking them...

well these will be 1/18th scale not 1/10th scale... I was reading over at RC Car Action last night and it was said that the RTR version of this will come with the D-box installed...

The price will defiantly go down but 360$?! Thats allot! even if it goes down by like 30% its very expensive for a 1/18th kit. But it looks so sweet!! lol
