I raced about 1999-2004 and over the time I had many cars. My first car was a Losi Junior 2 (NOT new at the time). By the time I was done with it it was a hodgepodge of old parts and a XX retrofit gearbox. I have no idea what happened to it honestly. Second racer was the B3 below, that's the only one I still have, I bought it late 2001ish. Also I used to buy up cars and lots on eBay, rebuild, clean up, resell, keep some, etc. It's essentially how I funded a lot of this. I know at some point I had complete cars of: multiple gold pan RC10s, including an original that was nearly flawless, RC12L, probably three cars worth of JRX stuff, HPI Micro RS4, Losi XX-4, and an RC10GT. Favorites outside my main buggies being the last two. The GT was just too much investment in ancillary stuff for nitro that I just didn't have, all the starter boxes, glow igniters, etc. I borrowed most of the time I had it. So I moved on from it. The XX-4 no one ever raced around me so I sold it. That was a sweet car though.
Also just saw the Mini JRX2, so I'm going to get one of those very soon and maybe hop it up a bit, get some tires, etc. I have zero interest in racing again, but I think my nephew might get a car and that would be fun to have to drive with him and it will fit in a suitcase to take on a plane. Still easier to get parts too. I've got a few spares for the B3 but I don't want to have to track something rare down from a mishap. I'm sure I'll be posting something in the Losi forum.
Here's my old B3, it's beat to hell from use. I took it down to bare parts and rebuilt it about a year ago. Runs great. I purposely didn't "restore" it as I decided it was a patina of my late teenage years and to leave it alone and that perfect new parts and a flashy new body would take away something from the beat up old worn down parts and the bad paint job.
