It should since it has a fraction of the number of pieces the 911 does.

Yeah, but it's a Porsche. Fewer pieces equals higher price.

Got this (and the related F40 and a Camaro ZL1 NASCAR) for my bday. I've put together the others (will post pics eventually when I get good light) but this one I'm doing tonight. Love the color scheme.

That front end is hideous, wish there were others.

I do too. May we see the finished product?
I like those little desk lamps, for no apparent reason. Built one or 2 for the Detective Office modular. Loved the small details.

I don’t understand the hate of the GT3 RS other than the considerable expense. In person, I think it does a really good job of looking like a GT3 RS.

For me I think the headlight area just looks wrong. Too much open space around them looks like the car is missing trim. For the money they are charging I feel they could have put a little more effort into making that area and around the hood more filled in.

It's not too bad otherwise.

I think the GT3 looks fantastic.

If you want something more accurate, you should be playing with scale models, not Legos. Of course there's a limitation to what they can achieve.

Finished the Senna. The light in my house is crap and there was basically no natural light today, but this one is neat. Complete with wind tunnel fan. I’ll take better and more pics when we finally see some better light.

i recieved the Saturn V kit from Lego from my bro for xmas. I havent built with legos in over 15 years, was given this because my work is building rockets.
i gotta say, this kit is awesome, was a pleasure to build, and looks amazing!
definately a good project to do with the kids as they will surely ask tons of questions. i forgot how much i enjoyed legos as a kid.

****ty cell pics coming!!!! Finally got the proper light kit for the VW Camper. The first one was defective, and had to be returned. They're shipping another for free, and refunded the money. The new one by LightTailing is put together wayyy better.

I really want to buy the Executor and light kit from Lepin.

But somehow, putting a light kit on the Millennium Falcon seems... wrong.

Cool. Definitely considering the light kit for both the bus and the beetle.

I tried to google upcoming sets for the year. Found a few sites but didn't see much yet. Anyone know what the next "Hulkbuster" and "Voltron" is going to be?

I finished the bus last night. It's a cool set, I just wish there was an easier way to see all the detail on the interior.

I've got the new 911 coming today, probably won't start it until the weekend.

Instead of the orange cover, they should have made it almost see through. Not ideal, but it's better than tearing the roofs off. With the light kit, I won't even attempt that, and just leave the doors open.

Picked up a few new release sets a couple weeks ago. Still have the Dodge Speed Champions set to build.

I've never bought a modular before but I'm liking that new garage. I'm running out of places to put these things.

Lack of space is why I have a Star Destroyer, Voltron, Milano and Ship in a Bottle all sitting in their boxes.

I like that that kit has 3 zones. The Lepin one I believe only has one.

Don't know much (actually anything) about Legos (except they hurt to step on in the dark at night), but my neighbor is selling these on eBay...
