kinda confused

I've been interested in hot wheels fir years. I keep them nice now days. But I used to have 25 car pileups and crash and Burns back when I was young. I here yal talking about 50 + dollars for some cars. Are these the real big ones. And could someone explain the different scale sizes and maybe even post up a pic of them next to each other. I want to get deeper into collecting but want to know more first. I also read in one thread about a fox that he said he modified and couldn't sell because he has to much money in it . Do they make parts for them you can interchange?

That's a joke, right? I don't care how much time has been spent modifiying them, that's mad money

Those cars on ebay are utterly ridiculous. I still like my car toys but...really? I'm still iffy on whether or not to spend 100$ or less on a 1:18 scale AutoArt. Let alone the 5-600$ for the AutoArt Ford GT LM car...

That Ferrari is sick. So modifications are basically DIY cutting wheels off of another car and gluing them on..so on and so forth? Any good brands to watch out for?

Look for local diecasts clubs, they usually have meetings every once in a while and sell diecasts for much less than stores do.
