An excellent addition to the Technic series

For those looking for something smaller than the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, this set is for you. The color scheme that this set comes with looks really good and is a definite must have for collectors. The only drawback to this set in my opinion is the headlight pieces as they are a bit bulky in comparison to the rest of the vehicle, however, it is still a well thought out piece and looks good on display. It is worth noting that this set does come with quite a large amount of stickers. If you have trouble with stickers, you might need someone to help put them on. For example, the wing itself is a set of three stickers and they need to be aligned properly for the text to flow smoothly. In conclusion, it isn't surprising to see this set already on backorder. The price tag is definitely less expensive than the GT3 RS, but with that being said, the RSR is substantially smaller in size... and I would argue that to be a good thing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

At first I wasn't sure If I want this set because of it's size not being an 1:8 but I'm glad I purchased it. I had a great fun time building it. it's much less complex than the 911 gt3 and Bugatti but it looks as good as the other sets.

LEGO Porsche

I’m not really in the the cars, but I bought the 007 Austin Martin and found it to be cool and very detailed. So, I had no plans on building the Bugatti, Porsche GT3 or others do to price. I saw this and thought it was well worth the cost and looks cool. This is by no means a small build and was well worth it. If you don’t want the huge cost of the Orange GT3 or the Bugatti buy this one instead it’s well worth it.

Excellent Lego Technic model - technical elements of the car are handled with enough complexity to be educational whilst being just the right level of build challenge Looks great too ! Looking forward to more like this from Lego Had gone to Lego Store to buy Bugatti - but saw this and thought I would give it a try.

Very Realistic 911 RSR
on January 19, 2019
Posted by: porschefan
I have built the Bugatti Chiron and Porsche GT3 RS. These models have tremendous detail in the engine and transmission bay and yet when the car is complete, the cool bits are hidden from view. There was effort in Porsche 911 RSR to maximize the aspects you can see. Always impressed that every one of the 1580 pieces supplied has a purpose and there is no excess or waste. Nice kit...Look forward to the next!

I had a great time building this kit, it came together in well timed stages with functionality building first and then the asthestics coming together at the end. I built it over a few days during the holidays and really had to force myself to stop each time.
Its a great looking kit and is very faithful to the real car.

Coping over the retired 911 gt3 rs
on January 27, 2023
Posted by: JakubFK8
The build was fun to do as I did it in 1 sitting. Bags aren’t labeled so it made it some what confusing at first but once you start going, you remember where the pieces are located. Overall great build and its nice to have as you cant purchase the road car variant anymore.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What a pleasant surprise
on June 7, 2020
Posted by: c0rp0r4te
I bought this kit thinking it was really cool already, being a Porsche 911 fan, and I was still completely blown away. I couldn't stop building it, and the entire time, I kept stopping to marvel at the engineering that went into this. It is sturdy, heavy, and larger than I originally expected. I was so impressed, 100% must buy if you are on the line. The only thing I didn't enjoy was putting the stickers on because it's difficult to get them perfectly straight, but once I figured out a strategy, it wasn't that bad, but otherwise, so much fun and a great collector item, especially since these appear to be limited runs.
