Somewhere, it was rummored among leaks that it could not be a Mercedes 2-pack but a Jaguar 2-pack set. In this case, I would bet on the old F-Type and possibly something like the E-Type.

I guess what scale they are? We had a Dodge Charger in the mid-scale already (the next after that the Car Transporter gang), so I suppose that they are still the Car Transporter gang-scaled this time, as the orange Supra was. As for Viper, I remember 8007 (or another number) - a Viper-looking car with wheel arches made of the flex axles, and the body shaping was made of modular panels (they were attached to the chassis via angled connectors)... May it be a new version? -
I think it always makes sense to address it to TLG Support if the printed parts are really awfull. I remember these ugly stickers for Lime-Green Pullback Shelby (Technic set), and I got a new stickers sheet with a correct Lime-Green shade. So, I belive the prints should be also acessible for substitution. Stepping asside, I had an experience with replacement of sunglasses, it took 5 times to finally replace them to the ones with finally correct finish coating, but well, this summer they were permanently fresh and new, after each replacement 😅

Wow, TLG is now taking advantage of more and more use of not only SNOT in their traditional form - Studs On Sides / Underneath, but now a kind of Studs Are Inclined. I didn't like how it was made in many MOCs because of tiles being placed at too chaotic angles, so the model looks more like a pangolin than a streamlined supercar. Now, in TLG interpretation, it comes gentler, not ruining the shaping but adding nice, sharp edges. From the trio of new supercars, my vote goes to the Bugatti first, with amazing shaping and eye-catching wheels (but I don't like the rear, with a lazy brick-built "wall"). The second is Ferrari - a more traditionally-built car, noting special, but these new wheels (not the covers, exactly wheels) are really something new in LEGO (ha-ha, who is the copycat now...). McLaren, as for me, looks more ugly rather than beautiful, with too many exposed unfinished edges.

Here is a promo video (I think a re-upload, can't find the original)

There are a lot of discussions of the 1st January set in the 2025th thread:

I'm sorry for being late - shouldn't it be in a 2026 year discussion?

Well, I can't say I'm really happy with these models, like usually. There some new amalzing parts but also I regretabbly 77237 - "Dodge Challenget SRT Hellcat" in lime color The model looks ridculosly long (2 studs for front and rear overhang, 4 for mudguards and 8 for the middel part). The Challeneger is a big car, I know, but with the proportions its looks too "long-nosed". I like these kind of cars and was waiting for this model (and even made my vision of it, with ~320 parts used). Now I can say I see it like a somehow "lazy build" - with 390 parts used it could have much better result. Now what I do like: New 1x3 curved slopes (the front bumper) - the 1x2 slopes 11477 are now stretched to 1x3 length. I can't wait for other colors for this part! New "Round-legged" mudguards - the 35789 part now have their "short siblings" like 18974 got 3387 once. It is a logically expected step to have the "low profile" variant for this part too bit I expect a very limited use of it - there are not so many cars with a low side profile and without any skirts underside. A special like goes to 1x1 plates with a clip addon in trans-clear color for the headlights - I spent a lot of time to achive the "angry brow" effect using the exisiting 1x1 rounded studs with uneven offset, and this way looks even more accurate than my attempts.

I know this part is quite old, but I was surprised to see it in the Speed Champions model. While G 63 (yeah, I forgot about it, my bad) is a "King-Size" model and must have some out-of-the-line solutions, this one is more "convenient" and, boom!, it got new steering wheel idea (that finally resolves the "offset problem" of older models) and a new "convertible" windshield. A big progress, finally! I'm not sure if I can put it here, so please feel free to erase if it shouldn't be here. Here is my attempt to build the coming set (pretty similar to recent Mercedes convertible):
-
Is it the first time we have a steering wheel as a separate part (the "circle" only), instead of a wheel+stand regular part?
-
Auuuchh... I found this Honda S2000 set leaks, and my impressions are controversial... I love new colors, and it is great to see the parts in the rare shades. It is also a great opportunity for MOCs! But the shape that TLG made... Well... It strongly reminds me of the Tibetan fox with a disproportionally (to usual foxes) high placed eyes. Really, S2000 had them not on the top of wheel arches...
-
Well, it also could be "all-at-once"... Letty is a more famous character than Suki, so her appearance could be more likely. Plus, in some Fast-PutYourNumber-Furious series, she used to draw Dodge Challenger cars. I wonder, may it correlate with this one? Absolutely, Suki's vibrant pink S2000 is much more iconic, alongside with Skyline. Because these cars were "characters' alter-ego" before they jumped into "choose whatever you want as a one-time ride, coz you will destroy it in a minute" Anyway, I would love to see them all. Plus, I spent some time this year on attempts to make Challenger (as best as it could be), and want to compare it with Lego's official result.

I think, it may come as a single new part, the full combination of "axle" with A-shaped arms and integrated pods. Just something to where you need only add a pair of wheels.

Nice catch! I see the same now! They are like 10-15% wider
