I’ve seen Maisto’s cars that sell for about $25 for a 1/18 scale model, and AUTOart sells around $150 per 1/18 scale model car. What makes them so expensive?

In comparison to what? They are not hand made, and yet the machines that are used to MASS PRODUCE them are not cheap. Plus some of those paint jobs. WOW!! Though they are applied by machine as well.
Plus the scrap metal market is all going to China at premium prices leaving us very little here at home, that too drives up the cost.
China is a big user of commodities, almost all high prices can be attributed to China in the fact they are gobbling up so much of everything, like we do and used to do, though to a lesser extent now with the economy the way it is.
