Not a pretty front end
on September 23, 2026
Posted by: Thor
The issue I have with the car is that the wheel well is really ugly. I have gotten my Nephew the ferrari and the ford Gt and they both are infinitely better looking. The doors are really hard to get working well and shutting all the way. If you want to to shut rally well then the doors dont go stright up like the real car. If you want the doors to go stright up then the door will sit ajar.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Amazingly Pleasing

I loved my Koenigsegg Jesko. I am a car fanatic and the moment I saw this in the store at a discount, I immediately purchased it. I can't lie, building the doors was a challenge. But overall, I would recommend this. I love it, especially with the way the turning mechanic was designed. Get it!

This was my first foray into Technic and it was pretty good. It’s definitely a different experience than regular Lego. There are next to no regular bricks and you REALLY have to pay attention because backtracking moves is next to impossible. One thing I like is I’ve gotten to the point where I’m building so fast it feels hard to get my money’s worth and Technic is hard to build fast so he fun lasts longer. It took me about six hours to build this and I built R2D2 in half that time and it had a higher brick count. My only gripe is the steering isn’t working well and I can’t figure out how to fix it. I’m not sure if I will buy more Technic in the future but I would definitely recommend this to someone who wants to give it a shot.

Response from LEGOBy Coryne, LEGO® Customer Service, January 27, 2026
It’s never fun when things don’t work the way they should. Make sure each part is positioned exactly as shown in the instructions and that everything is pressed together firmly (except the gears, which need a bit of space to turn). If you’d like a hand troubleshooting the build, feel free to reach out at LEGO.build/Service‑BV, we’re happy to help!

Least Favorite Build
on January 4, 2026
Posted by: OzziesDogDad
Name the set and I have probably built it. I know the technic set are a ton of gears (and internal guts), I have built many of the formula one cars. This was just boring from beginning to end. Once it was finished, it was flimsy. It was my least favorite build ever. Unless you MUST do these car builds and have no other options, avoid this one.
