Who doesn't love a good toy car? Stupid little girls, that's who. So don't buy any of your doll-cuddling daughters these awesome Classic Wrecks, regular die-cast and plastic cars painstakingly detailed by hand to add in the rust, scratches and dents of a truly used car.

You don't even need to buy one of these Grand Theft Auto 3-style machines to appreciate their beauty. The photographs on the maker John Findra's Etsy store pages are both great and plentiful. If you opt to take one into your home, they can be had for around $45-$55.

Or you could just loan your expensive model cars to a couple of kids for a day and they'd turn out much like this.
