Default What should i buy to start out in R/C?

now, typically, when in forums, i'm not the person to post this kind of broad question, because in my experience (paintball forums) you end up getting very widely ranging answers....

but... i've never owned an RC car before, adn i'm looking to get into it....

i have no idea what kind of budget i should have.... because cars i've seen online range from 99 up to 300 dollars...?! plus i imagine there are other expenses, like fuel, batteries, remotes etc... unless they come with the car? i don't know?

what is the first car YOU bought, should i start with nitro? electric? what is included when i buy a car? what should i use as a realistic budget? what are some other 'must haves' i should buy when i start out? (ie: def buy a rechargable battery so you don't spend a zillion bucks buying new every few days, etc...)

thanks for the help, sorry to post such a broad question.
