My daughter wanted a small remote control car and this one is fantastic! She loves it! Even my 5 year old can maneuver it! Great purchase! it ran all Xmas day and for the next 4 days and still is on the same batteries!!

I purchased this for my 22 year old son because he is always saying he wants a Mustang. It was a hit as a funny gift to give. I guess it is about 12 inches long, not overly big and it has great detail. We are all having fun with it. Highly recommended!

This product is great. My husband has so much fun with it and it is so durable that there is not even a scratch yet from hitting into walls. Service was great and I got it nicely wrapped and almost immediately after I ordered it.

I bought 2 of these cars for my kids to race based on what I believe is misleading advertising. Per the Product Description on Amazon, "All models include the dashboard hand controller with multiple frequencies so two cars can be driven simultaneously.." I assumed that you could actually change the frequency of each car so they could be played at the same time. Not so! I called the manufacturer who informed me that you have to buy one car at 49Mhz and the other one at a different frequency.

As such, I'm left with 2 kids with 2 cars that both are controlled by the same controller...not much fun for playing racing!

My husband and I thought these were good gifts for our nephews. One of my husband's cars is a '67 Mustang, so it was fun to give these as Christmas gifts. The kids enjoyed them. I probably downgraded the durability a little bit because these are being played with by 2nd and 3rd graders and I thought there was some room for the kids to damage them easily. But they worked great and arrived from the vendor very timely.

This car is great. It's fast, durable, and it can turn with ease. It's perfect for everyone, even young kid's can steer it. I recommend this car to anyone who likes a small, speedy car with plenty of good looks.

I got this for my six year old and it looks nice. It is the normal size for a remote control car such as I had in the 80's. It is nice and durable. It has a short radio range so the kid has to run if he wants to keep up with it at max speed. It is zippy and fast and steers a full 360 and has full front and back power. I am very happy with it.

***before you can get it out of the box, you need a precision philips head screwdriver to remove the screws holding these chunks of plastic to the car with the box between the two. just so you are warned. these days they are getting insane with the anti-theft methods to keep toys in their boxes. barbies with their hair stitched to the plastic part of their boxes. 5 year old not amused trying to open barbie christmas morning, 34 year old was not amused when he tried to get this car out of the box.***

my husband has wanted a remote control car forever now. he keeps showing me ones that cost hundreds of dollars that he wishes he had so he could chase the cats with it. we have 3 house cats at the moment and they like to play.

i got him this one cause it was under #20 when i ordered it. i figure this is toy that is going to be driving all over my floors, off the linoleum onto the carpet and back again as he screws with the cats and gets them to attack it. and i was completely right. the cats dont know what to think of it, one tries to hold it down so it wont move and she can sniff it, but hubby backs it up and spins it around to behind the cat and my cat chases it to try to hold it again. our youngest cat pounces it as it goes around the corners of furniture. and our oldest smacks it with her paw like she is punching it. lol its all very cute.

as for the durability, it seems to be doing good mechanics wise, but eats up batteries, and charging rechargables for it doesnt seem worth the effort. so i bought him a 20 count of batteries and when he is out, then he just has to start playing with his laser light to get the cats to make him laugh, until we get paid again. this car is an indoor only car for our household. my husband says "you can run it into stuff and it bounces back pretty good" if that is helpful to anyone considering buying this. he likes that it has a switch type thingy on the bottom that is for alignment. he was so happy when he opened it, flipped it over and saw that. lol

educational value, um, hand eye coordination i guess. if used differently by other people, maybe you can find other values. i just laugh at the cats and my husband having fun.

*side note, we live on a half acre, and my husband was wanting a rc vehicle that could handle the rugged insanity that is our backyard. that is what i was first searching for but couldnt find anything with good enough reviews and for a price i am willing to pay. if you have any suggestions on a rough and tumble rc vehicle that doesnt make a ton of noise while running or anything else highly annoying, please let me know. he has a birthday every year, his age goes up, but he acts younger. thank you.*

Bought for my 8 yr old nephew. It's taking a beating and still runs great. He just loves it.

'Ordered this car for a young male relative. It looks sharp in a compact, peppy package BUT...the wheel alignment knob came off & was lost within the first 2 hours of use and the car then would not go in a straight line, only in circles. I returned it to Amazon and ordered another one - and the SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. This time, the knob was found and I put it back on the car, but the car still won't go in a straight line, only hard left or hard right. This is a flimsy design. Don't waste your money on this car.
