    Bought two of these for my nieces kids and they loved it, so glad I got these on special, would’ve paid regular price, had I known how much they loved them, cars are really fast, not to be used indoors that was the only complaint, lol

    This remote car is alot of fun for adults and teenagers. Younger children would not be able to operate it properly. My 14 year old son enjoys it.

    This came very well packaged and looked great. It was a Christmas present for my 8 year old grandson. He loved it until he hit the garage door and it broke. That was in 30 minutes of opening. Probably a great RC for someone a bit older. Looked very well made. Would purchase again if it was for someone with more ability.

    I had to purchase another Thrasher after I received the first and saw how nice it looks. Since the car comes in two different colors, I decided to get one for my other nephew as well.
