size is actually not too important, but 1/24 is the most common. What does matter in car building, contrary to airplanes, is being able to do a proper paint job of the body, taking ample time of cleaning it, removing mold lines, grounding/sanding and finally putting on the real paint, in several thin layers and then again sanding and polishing until you get a deep shine with no orange peel.
Try this first on cheap models of curbside kits.
