Cool beans

I like beautiful cars and Ferrari sure knows how to make some, so naturally I had to get this set upon release.
This set took me a while to build because I had a lot of trouble pushing in the connector pieces which seemed to have ends that flared out too much, making it difficult. I'm not sure if this is the norm since this is my first Technic and I don't have experience with other Lego sets.
If this is even possible, it would be nice if Lego printed the sponsorships on the plastic instead of giving us 57 stickers because my OCD kicked in and I was going crazy trying to place the stickers on as evenly as possible. I even brought out some forceps! The gap between the wheel and wheel arch in the rear is quite large for what's supposed to be a race car which honestly spoils the look of the completed product. Pleased with the product overall.

He loved it
on January 7, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this as a gift for my nephew for Christmas. He loves the technic cars so i got him this one. It thought it would take a bit for him to take. He had it fully together in one 6 hour setting a few days after Christmas. And these are not normal lego pieces. Some are tiny and have to be snapped together very tight. I have included pictures but I have edited the kids out, sorry.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, my entire family from my son to my partner are HUGE lego fans. My partners also a huge fast car fan, so when I got the chance to grab this, I jumped on it! It’s tricky - definitely don’t recommend it for young children, lots of small parts - but it’s a blast to put together and the way it all comes together and works is so cool. Definitely high quality and I recommend to any Ferrari and/or lego fan!

Great build! Great Value!

After starting the build, I was unable to stop until completion. The only complaint with this build was the ride height. However, one quick YouTube video fixed that problem. Now, after lowering the car, it looks like an actually Ferrari! I had a lot of fun with this as I am just getting back into building Legos!

Very Fun build.

This was my second technic set, after the senna and I loved it. In total it took me around 10 hours and 20 minutes to build. I was scared about the stickers but honestly they really weren't bad. The only bad thing is the price should be a little less in my opinion.

FERRARI 488 GTE WEC Race Car
on March 21, 2022
Posted by: RexCraftyCamera
The Ferrari 488 GTE is a was a very fun build very realistic to the actual car used in the WEC and IMSA racing series. The set is a little tricky to build around the front of the car and the sides with the tube peices to align perfectly to make the wind shield. Overall a great set and I totally recommend to anyone who's a fan of FERRARI and endurance sports car racing.

Stickers, stickers every where...
on January 11, 2021

I enjoy the challenge and patience stickers bring and this set brings it. Overall a pretty standard Technic build with a few new pieces and an assembly on the front end I’ve never done before. If having this for a display only, highly recommend lowering the suspension. Video online will show you how post build or if you want to while building, start at step 10. This is the rear end and you’ll put the shock in the 2nd to end spot and not the 3rd. For the front end, you’ll skip steps 96 and 97(100 and 101 opposite side) and on step 98 follow the video instructions or view my pic of where to put the pin assembly. Would also recommend swapping out any blue pins on the body for black. This was a fun build and ready to be added to the collection.
