Fans Of Hot Wheels Cars? These Are The 5 Most Expensive Hot Wheels Cars In The World

Hot Wheels has been around for over 50 years and at the same time, has been a childhood part of not only American children but also children all over the world.

There is no denying that in this modern age, there are definitely some of us who make these small cars as a collection or a hobby. In fact, some of the rare Hot Wheels cars make it very expensive and exceed the price of a car.

Here is a list of the five most expensive Hot Wheels cars in the world:

5) 1970 Ed Shaver Custom AMX

Priced at around $ 4,000, this car features a drag race, Ed Shaver. This is probably the most sought after AMX replica ever produced. It is said that at that time some of these cars were handed over on the track where Shaver raced, and some were also available through promotions.

4) 1974 Blue Rodger Dodger

Among the cars that are rarely found and are said to cost around $ 6,000. The story begins in 1985 when a collector named Bob Parker stumbled upon a unique blue variation and planned to sell it for profit. It is believed that only seven of them were produced. Legend has it that all seven of them sold at a relatively low price in 1985 after Bob Parker traded a bunch of his Matchbox cars to a collector from England for this limited edition car and then sold them through the mail-order business he started.

3) 1968 “Cheetah” base Python

Priced at around $ 10,000, if you have a car that looks like this, try reversing it and check the metal base. If you can see the word “Cheetah”, you only have one of the nine known to exist that feature an exclusive mold from Hong Kong. There are six original ‘Cheetah’ cars in red, one orange, one yellow, and one unpainted and unassembled that are known to this day.

2) 1970 “Mad Maverick”

Based on the 1969 Ford Maverick car, very little about this car is known to exist. This car is estimated to cost around $ 15,000. There are two shades of blue, one purple, and one unassembled and unpainted. It was originally released under the name ‘Mad Maverick’, but due to its resemblance to a competitor brand car, also named ‘Mad Maverick’, it was changed. This model was later relaunched as the more general ‘Mighty Maverick’, with different base plate adjectives.

1) Pink Rear Loading Beach Bomb

Priced at around $ 150,000, this metal-pink prototype is probably the rarest Hot Wheels car. In this version, the skateboard is loaded into the car through the rear window. Because of its design, the car is too narrow to fit and works well with the popular ‘Hot Wheels Super Charger’ playset. Therefore, this model was never released to the public. Only a few models produced were given to Mattel employees’ children for ‘playtesting’.
