Pretty good set some small issues
on March 31, 2019
Posted by: Pkilla
Nice set. Instructions had some small issues that will frustrate you if you are not an advanced builder. Model stability leaves some room for improvement. Overall fun build and a great set for the money.
I would recommend this to a friend!
Response from LEGOBy Emily, Customer Service, April 4, 2019
If something ever seems like it's not very sturdy, the best thing to do is double-check your build. Sometimes there may be a piece just a little off from where it should be, which can cause instability. You’ll also want to make sure that all the pieces are pressed tightly together, except gears and axles, which need some room to turn.
If you'd like a hand troubleshooting the build, or if you find that any pieces aren't holding together as they should, feel free to give us a shout at LEGO.com/Service.

No GT3RS

Cool build to add to the collection, but compared to the build and quality of the GT3RS this build doesn’t even come close. But you get what you pay for!,

First Build. Solid

A ton of little pieces. Good directions. Took time to build which I like, gives me a little challenge. Looks nice with lights too. Good price too! Wish other vehicles in similar size were similar in price as well.

Must have for Porsche lovers
on March 7, 2020
Posted by: Jmalme84
The Porsche 911 RSR is one of my all time favorite cars, so naturally I had to buy this set. Overall It was a great set that was fun to build. My only two complaints are: 1) There was a page missing out of the instruction booklet, but I was able to download the digital instruction booklet so I could view the missing page. 2) This set didn't utilize numbered bags, so it occasionally got frustrating going through all the pieces to find the pieces I needed for a certain step. Small issues that are easily solved, and overall didn't take away from the fun of building this car.

Almost Didn't Purchase - I Hate Stickers
on February 3, 2020
Posted by: JohnKIOhio
I almost didn't purchase this thinking it would be so much smaller than the 911 GT3. It is a bit smaller but I am very happy with the purchase. I hate stickers but have become good at them. I reviewed 2 other recent Technic builds and I commented about missing pieces. This is the other set that had missing pieces. Lego Support shipped them out right away but disappointing. I would recommend.

Great Fun
on June 26, 2019
Posted by: PoppyJack
The Porsche 911 RSR build was a lot of fun and very challenging. The attention to details in this set is amazing and I highly recommend it to anyone willing to take the time to build it. Part of the reason it was so challenging was because unlike recent past builds the bags in the box were NOT numbered. It reminded me of the old school Lego sets that I built with my son some 35 years ago when non of the sets had numbered bags. It took me about 7 days to build spending 2-6 hours a day resulting in a total build time of about 21 hours.

Detailed Model Great Value
on April 5, 2021
Posted by: Eastwood
I purchased this set to display alongside the GT3 and was a little bit disappointed to find out that the completed model is a little bit smaller than it’s predecessor however what it lacks in size it makes up for in great detail. This set comes with the most decals, especially large decals (two full sheets) of any LEGO set I’ve ever purchased. The build process is fun. The first 60% of the build is mostly internal structure and the last 40% fleshes out the body panels and overall vehicle shape. It doesn’t have that many play or action features aside from what you’d expect it any other technic set. If you’re a fan of Porsche and/or want a great sports car display model, this set delivers. The white/red/black color combination is unique and eye catching! All in all very happy with this set and enjoy seeing it displayed on my shelf!

Great set but no numbered bags?
on March 11, 2022
Posted by: Sarcastic
I love building legos and I’ve bought many sets however this was the first set I have ever bought that did not have numbered bags. This set has 1580 pieces in it and that’s a lot to just set out all of the pieces. It’s also quite overwhelming to see all the pieces and have to look through every pile for what you’re looking for. I would not recommend this build if you don’t have a big area to work in.
