Lime again, how boring.

This might be the first technic set I buy in a very long time. It's a pity they went with lime like the Sian, would have been better in, say, yellow.

For the small size, the shape is ok.

I don't like the repetitive color, and the black rims which are a constant of all small sized Technic cars. It should also have bigger rims/smaller tyre profiles, introducing a rim cover would not be so bad.

Shelby, bolide, corvette, senna etc. sized. So technic "speed champion" series.

Is this Ford GT sized? Shelby sized? Bigger than both?

No, it's smaller. This model is 28 cm long, compared to 452 cm real car, it's 1:16.

Overall, I like the shaping and have no objection to the colour. I don't like the stickers though - especially that one at the front left (why not just use a green part?) - and the rear end looks a little high, i.e. the rear top panels don't seem to slope down far enough.

If it's smaller than the Shelby that's good, means I might be able to afford this.

As a car, I think it looks nice. I like how the doors are slightly slanted.

Also, seems a good parts pack for new small panel stuff in lime. I might get it just for that.

For the rest, these cars are all a bit "samey".

Most probably will get this because of all panels.

Otherway, design also is pretty good, if not the best from all in this scale.

I hope this set include 1x6 amd 1x7 half thick beam in lime.

Doesn't seem likely. All lime pieces for the exterior are visible from the pics.

I don't know how Lamborghini approved this one 😂

I know right? It looks like a bunch of panels put together and claims to be a Lamborghini.

None of those 1:18 Technic cars do look like their IRL counterpart

At least the Sian gets the hunching pose, the fat face, and the basic lines correct.

There's definitely no front diff - the front wheels are mounted on 3L axles with stop, because they're reddish brown :tongue:

Well, that SUCKS.

They did a relatively good job with the pins. nearly all pins connecting the (green) panels to the car are in black.

But what would important to me is the amount of gears. And whats a shame: it has 100 parts less then the bugatti but costs 3 Money more. :sadnew:

The Bugatti sounds like good piece count for money on first look, but it just contains so many small parts. There are so many 1x2 half beams in this set... After building the Bugatti I felt that it was not more of a bargain than any other set. So I'm really not surprised that other sets from Technic don't have the same price per piece value.
