seems a bit too good to be true for $70 but if you trust the seller go ahead but finding parts for it might be hard so be careful not to break anything or you could be screwed by having to ship every little part you break from somewhere like china or new zealand! I've never heard of nascada before though...

Thanks,

What do you mean "it looks ok".... what kinda things do you see on this car that are good?

Are there any well known brands that have all this has for $70??

What would be the price of a "brand name" car with similar specs?

I found what looks like a pretty good review of this car:
