Cute pink Vette big enough for Barbie, but looks are about it. It goes forward or backward with a built in turn. Kids have a difficult time figuring out how to get the car to go where they want it to go. You have to do a series of reverse turns to end up facing the direction you want to go.
This one sits it the closet.

I have a two girls, 6 and 8 years old. I purchased two of these for Christmas because they asked for monster trucks but I thought this would be a better and more girly alternative.
Next year, I will purchase the monster trucks.
You cannot use both cars at the same time because one remote will work both cars. They move at a snails pace and do not turn. Well ... If you make them go backwards, they turn, but only straight when going forward.
I see it as a problem because I wanted them both to be able to play with their cars together but now each has to take turns which isnt much fun at all, in my opinion. They just wait patiently for their turn to drive their own cars or either pretend as if theyre racing snails down the sidewalk.
Not worth the money in my opinion but the kids still like them because its pink and its a remote control car.
Like I said, next year, I get monster trucks.

I was disappointed in two Mattel Barbie products this year ... this being one of them. You can't really steer the car. my daughter didn't seem to mind but i didn't care for the missing feature. she has to either pick it up or kick it to turn in. it angle's a little when in reverse mode only. talk about needing patience for that slow turn! not what my 5 year old has for sure!
over all it's a great cool toy...just missing a key feature. and for the hefty price it should be included!
Honest reviews on Barbie Light Pink Corvette Convertible Car & Doll Set
My daughters enjoy this car even though the turning radius is a little strange, with just the forward and backward to the left only. Granted it is their first remote control car and they are a bit older at 8 & 6, so they figured out how to drive it pretty easily. Admittedly I did get the car free from R US on a Christmas promo, so If I had to pay a lot for the car I would probably be disappointed in how it turns. But the bottom line is that my kids do enjoy it quite a bit.

We bought this car for my daughter for Christmas. Since we couldn't take it out of the package first we only found out the night before that the car doesn't turn the front wheels. The car instead has a wheel in the middle of the front of the car on the bottom that turns when you back up. The problem is that when you put the car in reverse it only backs up to the right. So if you want to turn left you have to back up over and over and over until you have backed up 270 degrees. It's like going around the block to get to your neighbor's house. This would be all fine and good if the car was fast or cost about $38. But for anything over $100 the front wheels should turn. Heck there are cars out there that cost $50 and have turning front wheels.
In addition it makes it difficult for the car to turn when in reverse if on carpet (which most people have these days). The turn radius is about 8 feet, so nobody will be able to even get this to turn unless you make the care go forwards and then reverse about 18 times. This is probably really good for the electric motor too.
If this was not a gift from Santa I would be taking it back to the store. I don't understand how stuff like this makes it out of testing at companies these days. It's all about the dollar bill and not about stuff that really works. Yeah I know....that's nothing new.
Please, don't waste your money. This car is a piece of poop. Seriously.
