These are actually remote control cars, not the plastic models. Depending on chassis/set up, these can cost as much as $100-1000+ and more. My current chassis that's under these bodies i post, overall cost around 1400-1600 easy and thats with dealer pricing on some parts. I usually sell the painted bodies anywhere between $60-$250 for the bodies ONLY, depending on Brand(big difference), detail, body kits, standard or custom mixed colors, and special one-off hand made items. Basically a body cost around 20-60 depanding on brand, then i charge 50 for paint/labor. Look up the cost on a Yokomo DRB chassis alone, pretty expensive lol

sounds crazy, but i can actually find you a decent set up for under 150-200 for the chassis only.
