Erik B Verified Owner Thursday, May 4 2023 (about 2 years ago) Schumacher Cougar Classic 1/10 2WD Buggy Kit More similar to Kyosho than Tamiya. It is an intersting build and design. The materials are very nice. It looks the part as well. 1 customer found this review helpful. Patrick Bélanger Thursday, Feb 20 2025 (7 months ago) Schumacher Cougar Classic 1/10 2WD Buggy Kit Nice classic RC with the quality of Schumacher Racing! Lawrence T Verified Owner Tuesday, May 21 2024 (about a year ago) Schumacher Cougar Classic 1/10 2WD Buggy Kit Excellent classic buggy at a great price. With the price of vintage rerelease buggys going up, this is a real bargain for a car that is well made, competitive and parts availability is good too. Would definitely recommend. And they won’t be around for much longer I reckon, although Schumacher is known for keeping spare parts available for years.
Only negative: the stock transmission is rated for 17.5 turn max, and the upgrade is costly. View all reviews
