Solid and fun build

The build process was a lot of fun and straightforward. I do have to deduct a little for having stickers in the kit. They unfortunately never look as good as a printed piece and the destination legos are not embossed in any way to assist with centering. The rigidity of the rear quarter panels was also a little lackluster compared to the Porsche 911 set, but you only notice if you give it a wiggle. Overall a ton of fun and mostly worth the price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My husband has this same car -'65 Shelby Cobra Factory Five- & the same color, so I asked my Grandson to build this set for him. He enjoyed it very much! He is 8 years old & has been building 18+ Legos since he was 5. He now builds using the 3D instructions on the Lego Builder App on his iPad. He really liked all the detail: the tools & toolbox; the "Hundo" for the dash!

Really Nice but...

... It is quite fragile! You have to handle it carefully to avoid pieces falling off of it.
The build was pretty straightforward, but the colors don't work well in the instruction book, making it hard to see. The Builder App worked much better and I recommend using the Builder App to build this. There are a couple of steps that are confusing in the instruction book, but the app helps make things clear because the colors are much better and you can zoom in and rotate the assembly in question to look at it from different views.
I have to mention that the kit creatively uses a Lego coffee cup, two Lego spoons, and a lego fork as part of the build. Entertaining!
Overall, it is very well done and looks fantastic! Great to display and great for any car enthusiast. Recommended!

Loved building this set and I think it looks great.

Very first time I've had a product shipped with missing parts. Fortunately, I had pieces that would suffice. Two are somewhat buried in the build and not exactly correct an another I cobbled together with 2 other parts and it is in an obvious spot and looks bad. All from Bag 5.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love it. It's complex to build, but fun as well! It's not a toy for sure, but looks amazing. The scale is spot on for some reason. The seats suck, won't stay in place....but it's not a toy lol! Only complaint: instructions. The darkish gray background and Ford blue pieces are hard as heck to see in anything but bright light. And I know, Ford blue (sigh), but again? Still, this things amazing! 🙃
