I read the reviews from Amazon, before ordering this car from Toys R Us.  We paid the extra money to have it assembled.  We gave it to my daughter for her birthday (December 2005), when she turned 2.  She was so excited she drove it around the house.  We haven't taken it outside yet, because it's still cold out.  But, she plays with it at home, and when she does she puts on her glasses (baby bop's glasses) and gets her keys (plastic keys) and drives around the house in it.  When we purchased it, the only color available was Purple and Pink.  Which suited her.  It seems that the yellow and red color wasn't available at the Yonkers, Toys R Us.  But, she loves this car and so do we.
