This Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS Might Just Be The Most Spectacular Lego Set Ever Created
As you walk into Car Throttle HQ, you’ll see a fairly large Lego Ferrari F40. I spent a good few hours building it last year, at which point I was pretty sure it was the coolest Lego set ever created. But, that imaginary award now has to go to this incredible Lego Technic creation.
It’s set number 42056, and it’s a re-creation of the mighty Porsche 911 GT3 RS. And if you don’t want it very badly indeed, there’s something wrong with you.
It’s a 1:8 scale model of the real thing, and measures 57cm in length, 25cm in width and is 17cm high. If you’re looking for something to occupy your time, you’re in luck: with 2704 pieces in the set - more than twice the number found in the F40 kit - it isn’t going to be a quick thing to build.
Want one? It’s available from Lego’s online shop and selected Lego stores from 1 June, and everywhere else from 1 August. Predictably it’s not cheap: in the UK you’re looking at £249.00 in the UK and $299.99 in the USA.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Looks kinda creepy though, but I would still buy it.
Like a zombie with the flesh barely on.
Those panels fit together better than the panels on my car.
This is amazing! Want it!
The bonnet looks like it fits better than it does on the real one.
Damn, that’s 2 1/2 small Diskloks or 2 medium/large…

Is there any 1:8 scaled lego disklok?
A number 2, a number 2 large, a number 1/2 with extra orange, two number 1:8, one with cheese, and a small lego…
that moment you can’t even afford that right now…
I don’t like the fact that the pieces are not smooth, and yes it’s only me
No it’s not xD
Easy,just buy an MR2 and put an porsche 911 gt3 body on it
£250 for lego? Jesus. I hope I can drive it to work for that price.
Is it fire proof though?
