I think the Bugatti logo placed on grill is actually printed :)

Nope, it's sticker #15

I think 3 and 4 could be on the seats as i think the real version has the name stitched into it

The Chiron never was high on me, so I did not expect a Lego set to fare better. I like the back of the car but that's it. Not really into it.

That being said I am really intrigued by the gearbox and the brake discs!.The Porsche deserved better than it had!! I'll need  to get some spares.

Those are a lot of big stickers  Love the Saturn V and being stickerless made it perfect. Come on...

can someone with the instruction book let us know how many non-technic parts there are?  I am curious if the 900 more pieces compared to the Porsche is non-technic.  Thanks

Guys how is the packaging? Any problems like the first Porsche boxes had?

It's not long before the set is officially announced, and then your questions will surely be answered in the various reviews that'll come out.

You can see the part list yourself a few pages back on this thread. About 1600 parts are pins of one sort or another and there is not a shameful amount of non technic parts - 300 or so.

I’d be interested in the last pages of the instruction book where the functions are explained ;)

Model B anyone?

Same as the Porsche, probably.

[steph77]

I am still wondering how they managed the sequential shifter and were it is localised in the model

[Jack Bloomer]

Anyone have photo of new driving ring extension besides from the gearbox. 

[ShowsOn]

Is the engine placed directly above the gear box?

Rubber bands suggest it is the same method as on the Porsche but there is only one red changeover catch and that is probably used for the main shifter.

I bet you can make a good working Porsche 911 GT3 RS out of this set .

Not really:

- The Dark Azure pallet lacks 3x7 panels (#3, #4), 2x5 panels (#21, #22), 15L liftarm, 3L liftarm, angled liftarm.

- The Dark Blue pallet  lacks 3x7 panels (#3, #4), angled liftarm

Any idea where stickers #2 and #9 go?

 

Look like door interiors.

I didn't say it would have to be the same as 42056.

Me too. Despite all images we have no clue yet.

If they have been looking around a little in the MOC-community, they sure won't use the same method as in 42056.

Found a better shot of the new parts. Couldn't find a part count for the clutch gears, though only 2 of the new rotary style change over catches and 20z clutches... I want those so badly, though they are going to cost a fortune unless Lego releases them in other sets.

There's a white clutch gear in the part list. Brace yourself, gerabox stalling is coming. And Didumos will have another chance to save the day!

[Tommy Styrvoky]

Interesting, there are 5 technic driving rings, maybe more to the transmission, reverse gear maybe?
