This is the nicest set out of the four sets. Flo's lights up like the other ones, but the fact that they can "fuel up" is so neat. Also, there is a secret room at the top, too cool. However, this toy is so hard to find. I had to search for a long time to come across one finally on Amazon. There is just not enough of these to meet the demand. Flo's V-8 Cafe is the most popular set and just look at it, it's great. It is so popular and hard to find right now (end of June beginning of July 2006) and people are paying around $50 for this set on e-bay, before they were going for around $100. K-B Toys had it for pre-sale, but it sold out within a day. PRE-SALE!!!! I can't believe it. I let it pass by, but then a month later Amazon had it and I bought it and they offered Free Super Saver Shipping on this item. This is such a cool toy. I am so excited to have gotten one for my son.

The set lights up and takes batteries. It connects to the other three sets so that you can make Radiator Springs. I would reccommned it for 4 year olds and up. Small details could get broken by a younger child. Plus, this may very well be a collectors item later on. You never know.

Highly reccommended for children and adult collectors alike.

We finally have all four sets!!! We found our Flo's V8 cafe at KB toys in Birmingham, AL. I am so glad that we found it. Flo's is bigger than the other sets and has more details. My son plays with his sets several times a day, but Flo's is his favorite. He has room to "fuel up" 6 cars and he loves the car shooter inside the cafe. GREAT TOY!!!!

He takes very good care of all of his sets, and we haven't had any breakage as of yet. Which is good, because we may not be able to find them again.

After months of searching and calling numerous stores in three states and bidding daily on ebay. Amazon finally had them in stock! I LOVE AMAZON!!! And I got free shipping! I'm so glad I didn't win the bids I made for over $50 for it though. It is great and my son is so happy he finally has all the cars and playsets. It's the best of the four. I hope they bring out some more playsets like the cozy cone, sarge's, maters, filmore's, etc.

I like all the sets, but Flo's cafe is the best. It is well made
and my 4 yr old grandson has spent a lot of time playing with it. It lights up which is pretty neat, and my grandson especially
likes the "secret" room in the top of the building.

This playset was a lot of fun for my 3-year-old twins. The loved the lights and all of the places to put the cars. It held up well to their rough playing.

My son loves this playset. He got all four Car's playsets for Christmas. They are all very cute and he loves playing with them. He especially likes that they each light up. He turns all the lights out in the house and lights up Radiator Springs.

My mother found this for our sons for Christmas. It's well made and sturdy. No broken parts yet. They tote it from room to room and love to turn on/off the lights. I originally overlooked it, thinking it was for girls (named after Flo). I'm glad she found it because they LOVE it.

Our now 3 1/2 year old son received this Flo's V-8 Cafe playset for Christmas last year. Boy, was he excited when he unwrapped this! I didn't know what to expect because I had never seen one out of the package. I would have to say that this set is one of the best by far that he has. He spends hours playing with it. It does connect to the other playsets but the Luigi's set he recieved we thought was total junk compared to this. This one tops it by far! It's very cute, and there is more to do with this set. Cute gas pumps that lower, a car launcher and the upper level of the Cafe is great. My son LOVES the flashing lights as well, but...forgets to turn them off quite often and I've had to replace the batteries a few times. The only piece I think that is not as sturdy is the tall Flo's V-8 sign. It will stay in place fine, but it's just a little flimsy for a preschooler. Needless to say, this toy was and is wonderful and anyone that is a fan of Disney Pixar Cars the Movie should pick this up. I found it at a local Toys R Us for $29.99, and as far as I know, they still carry them. A much better price than what's offered here. I give it a thumbs up!

My son is a huge fan of Cars, both the movie and the toys, so when I saw we could collect the actual buildings in Radiator Springs, this seemed like a great place to start. Everything is well built with lots of little details, except that the pylon sign does not sit securely in the base, and tends to spin and lean, even fall out. Also, there are two extra "street" pieces that I suspect would be used to connect other Radiator Springs buiding sets to this one. However, when added to this piece by itself these pieces have a tendancy to come off of the main building, so we set them aside for when we buy more of the town. This has been a great addition to my son's collection, and an excuse to get more of the Cars characters, so they can all hang out at the station like they do in the movie.

i love this play set but my son does not seem to stay interested in it. i got it for him last christmas and he has never really gotten it out and played with it for more than a few minutes. hes 4 so maybe its better for an older child.
