First Build. Solid
on April 11, 2020
Posted by: FFEMS223
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.
I would recommend this to a friend!

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.

No Numbered Bags!
on May 27, 2022
Posted by: KartRacer
I would like to agree with the other recent reviews. We are 30 pages into the build and frustrated. We have pieces spread out all over a 3.5 x 8 foot dining table. Some pieces are in one bag and the remaining pieces of that size are in another. It is like Lego just threw random pieces in bags (10-12) with no purpose other that to have you spend all your time searching for pieces. How does one build this efficiently without a giant table. My son can’t reach the pieces so I walk around the table trying to find the pieces he needs. Very frustrating. I hope the Maclaren F1 car we just got him is not this way. Lego, you can do better for a car this expensive.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is a first
on December 23, 2022
Posted by: Ghunt
None of the bags were numbered so it took my longer to build than normal. The instructions were missing about 25 steps. It looks great and everything works awesome just a little irritating.
