I think you can get out the door for around $45 for a basic car without a remote control.
I really just wanted to sat that I hear people say it wasn't worth it all the time. That was/is not our experience. My 4 year old loves his Lightning McQueen car! He plays with often, we charge it when we need to, but we got two batteries so we have no downtime except to change them out. My daughter wants one now, although she'll change her mind.
