Great..more micro cars to collect (Speedez)

The other day I was checking out toy cars when I found these, they're made like Micro Machines but with a metal marble thing beneath the chassis to assist with rolling (They go FOREVER when pushed. I even accidentally pushed one and made it drift.), The only thing that made me purchase them was that the package I spotted was Rally cars..a Subaru Impreza STi (rally paint scheme), Ford Focus (old old WRC paint scheme), Peugot 307 (not in proper paint scheme), and two unidentifable cars (Maybe Skodas or something..I just know neither are Evos.) Today I also found a pack with a Peugot 206 and some other rally vehicle that was unidentifiable. They're a neat little plaything for those who just want something to keep their Capsule Cars company.

Aren't they to scale but with horrible body kits? I think I saw one once.

What are all the disadvantages and advantages of them? How fasst do they go? How much do they cost? What type of steering do they have, magnetic, motorized, or propo? What kind of drivetrain do they have? Do they have upgrades? What batteries do they take? What frequencies do they have, and how much range do they have? What mods can you do to them?

Yeah, they're just micro machines basically, only they roll much much longer. I dunno about that body kit thing, I know there are a couple of cars that are made to look that way (and some just look funny because of how the car's front end had to be stretched downward more to cover up the black chassis housing the bearing), but the main ones of interest like the rally cars all look really good. The best looking ones I've seen so far are the rally cars and the muscle cars. Just a fun little plaything, nothing more.
