Picking the right plane for BF
Hi, Recently my boyfriend has gotten really into RC gas-powered cars, so I was thinking for a Christmas present I would get him an RC plane. I want to get him a good quality plane that will last for a while and allow him to experiment with it and do tricks and what not. I have no where near as much money as I'd like to spend on it, right now I'd say I max out at $200 but I will work my butt off to make extra money if I need to. Anyways, so far I was looking at:

Those are only three examples, I am really quite lost in this search. So far I know that I would like one that is RTF... unless someonecould recommend an ARF which, when all pieces are bought, is cheaper that a RTF plane.
Also, I am posting this in the plane category, but I am not limited to planes. Any recommendations of any type of RC vehicle for less than $200 would be great! Just think, what would you want your girlfriend to get you for Xmas?
Thanks for any/all help guys!
