911 RSR Not up to Porsche
on July 31, 2020
Posted by: PcarConcours
I found the build to be enjoyable. Not very challenging but a few instructions needed studying. The final product I was rather disappointed with. Some aspects are just not true representations of the actual car. They could have done better like the GT3. But for the money, it was worth it. Look forward to the next Porsche. Hopefully a classic.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A must have for Porsche enthusiasts. A great way to see the placement of the mid engine flat six in the new 911 race car. Not as complex as the GT3 RS but still fun none the less.

Great Build, Challenging, Worth the Cost

I am relatively new to the Lego family (although my older son has been building sets for years and was a big influence on me to start building)...In my youth (68 yrs. old) I would spend hours upon hours of building, painting, etc. plastic models of all kinds of things...but cars models were my favorite..believing I was still good with my hands, I tackled this very detailed, Technic set...truth be told – (I had built the VW Bug - 1,167) prior to doing this build...
What a blast! it definitely brought me back to my youth...the attention to detail is remarkable...steering works, pistons go up and down, etc. it was an approximately a 21 hour build (quarantined and doing it like a puzzle - passing it and doing a small sections at a time)...the build difficulty was on a 4-5 level...I have ordered the light package (through Brick Tool) and can't wait until it comes to put a finishing touch on this build...the down side was the bags were not numbered - but I had purchased a puzzle board, so I could spread the pieces from the bags in piles, etc. I also anticipated doing a lot more big builds...
Needless to say, I hooked and already on the "slippery slope" of Legos...no surprise here...I have 3 additional "big" builds on the way...

Don’t underestimate this one: very challenging!
on November 23, 2022

These 10 and 11+ Technic sets should not be underestimated — very challenging for adult builders, too! The challenge is why I so enjoy these sets, and this one is no exception. Didn’t like having all the pieces in unmarked/unnumbered bags as I think that adds a needless amount of tedious complexity. That said, the challenge is part of the fun so if that sounds like a good time to you, this set won’t disappoint.

Impressive

Tremendously fun to build!!! Slightly challenging, as expected, but that's what I expect from a 1500+ piece set! I have spent way too much time admiring it sitting on my dining room table. One comment (not an actual complaint), the bags aren't numbered, so it took 18 ziploc bags, both 1-gallon and snack sized, and took up the entire table while building. It was still ridiculous amounts of fun, and would do it again in a heartbeat. Strongest possible recommendation.

The first car I built that did not have numbered part bags

Verified Purchase:Yes
Must open all bags to start. Searching for parts is really time consuming. Thus the low ratings on review
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
