**Condition Matters**: Take a good look at the condition of your car. Is it in mint condition, or does it have scratches and missing parts? The better the condition, the higher the value.

**Rarity Counts**: If your slot car is a limited edition or a rare model, it could be worth a lot more. Research how many were made and if yours is one of the few left.

**Look for Original Packaging**: If you still have the original box or packaging, that can significantly boost the value. Collectors love that stuff!
