On a serious note there are some very desirable castings in the Hotwheels range and i too agree that there are a good majority thats not available in any other 1:64 range.

I was given 2 Hotwheels Redlines for Christmas as a child so my association with the brand came only 3 years after my 1st Matchbox ( a 32b my father said!). Its best to only collect whatever toys we like rather than blind brand loyalty - Matchbox made some horrible concept models from the 1971 #19 Road Dragster and some rw like the 34b and 2c are less deserving of space in my home than any of the 1968 Hotwheels sweet 16!
