The attention to detail in this set is amazing. This set will keep you entertained from the start of the build to the end. If you're a bugatti fan like myself or just looking for a challenging build this is a must own
This car was pretty cool to build. I got to construct a gear box and see how it works in lego form. I built the transmission which my dad claimed was super cool. Plus it was bigger than I expected so overall I was very satisfied. Some pieces constantly fall off however it's worth the time and money.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for your review! It's awesome to hear you enjoyed the set.
Pieces shouldn't be falling off, though. Sometimes that's a sign something's a little off in the build. The best thing to do is to double-check that all the pieces are in just the right spot, and that everything (except the gears) are clicked tightly together.
If you need a hand troubleshooting the set, or find that a particular part isn't holding as it should, get in touch with us at LEGO.com/Service.
I was amazed as soon as I opened the box. Everything about this set is professional. The time and effort that went into designing the Chiron speaks for itself. Well done LEGO!!!
This set blew my mind. I had no idea such things were possible with lego/technic. The gearbox is insaaaaaaane and the paddle shifters are absolutely genius. AWD, gearshift, working doors, spoiler, frunk, luggage. I don't know how you improve upon this set. I haven't built many technic sets, but I can't imagine anything else setting a higher bar than this. The "mating" step is particularly satisfying once you get it to click.
i am very experienced with the lego technic line of vehicle build the formula 1 car, 24hr race car and the Porsche 911 GT3 RS. this model, like the others, is very high quality
My wife bought me the Chiron for Christmas, I thoroughly enjoyed building this model, although I think she's annoyed it didn't take me longer, I spotted a few small 'mistakes' in the instructions but they are easily sorted out. I like the packaging and presentation, and think the mosaic boxes inside are genius. I've seen a light kit available online, but not sure how easy it'll be to fit one now I've finished building it. I like how the build process is kept as close as possible to the actual build process of a Chiron, the 'marriage' is a little tricky, but not to bad once you line up the shafts. All in all an excellent model, can't wait to build my next!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for your review! It's awesome to hear you've enjoyed the set.
We always check and recheck our instructions carefully, so there shouldn't be mistakes, though. If you spot anything you think might be off, please do let our Customer Service team know where at LEGO.com/Service.
My son has been building Lego Technic since the age of 6. He's now almost 12, really good and enjoy building, modifying and playing with his Technic's.
The Bugatti is an amazing collector experience. The package is beautiful and he really enjoyed is building experience.
The problems come when you use this toy, as a toy. Parts are coming off easily, mechanism are not working properly, moving parts are really tight (suspension not coming up, trunk really hard to open, etc) and make the playing experience really deceiving.
You can feel is has been produced as collector piece and not as a "standard" Lego Technic with high standards and everything coming perfectly together...
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for your review. I’m sorry to hear that you've had a frustrating experience with your LEGO® set.
From what you’ve described, it sounds a little rebuilding might be in order. You’ll want to make sure that each part is in the exact position shown in the instructions and that everything’s pressed together tightly (except the gears, which need some extra room to turn). You should have much better results!
