What does everyone look for in a model kit? What makes a model worth the $$$ to you?

the Skyline hype?!? post was a great sucess, i learned alot, thank you.

Now for the bigger question.... What do you look for in a model kit? what do you require from a kit to make you fork over the money to buy it???
accuracy, detail, engine, tuner accessories? how does everyone decide which kit to buy next?

I will start.... With me its every time i see a car in real life that catches my eye I just have to find a model of it. It doesnt matter what kind of car it is either. just anything i hadnt seen yet. for example my mom got a brand new Echo... now i dont think the car is all that great looking but i hadnt seen it and promptly went and spent a month trying to locate a Vitz model which was the only alternative. its an obsession with cars in general i guess though ill buy any Ferrari kit and ive got most every type of Nissan as well. in fact the only Nissan im missing that i know is availiable is a Datsun Sunny1600 (if anybody has one please PM me!).
So what do you look for in a kit?
