The limited slip was 100% on the packaging of the Technic Car in the picture I saw with a number. That being said, I can't see TLG make limited of this. I can see however, that they make a limited edition + regular edition as something "new" for this series. There's only so much you can do with a car/marketing/ making it special. I think we'll get more info in 2 weeks time.

I saw a leak of the lego car(a picture of the car on the box/info slip)/box. It could have been fake. In the Lego Technic Group on Facebook someone made a post with two pictures offering to tell two copies however he said "I don't know what they're worth as they're unreleased". When I tried to access the post on my browser ( I was on my phone) the post was deleted. I have 0 to gain from making anything up and admit I could have been fooled as well but it did look pretty real to me.

Haha unfortunetly yes :( also fair warning my standard for "looks really nice" is much much much lower than most of you here so want to point that out before anyone thinks otherwise. I only saw one angle ( rear quarter view) and some text. Like I said could be completely fake but if that "slip" thing is true (limited edition of 5000) then it was real.

Finished it today. I now understand what people mean when they say it looks better in person. The angles are much better reflected with the real thing. The headlight assembly really stuck out in terms of angles. So clever. I think the angle of the door opening might have to be slightly wider but the function is really smooth and well thought out.

Thanks for the info. I went through each part essentially (the colored ones) to see what was feasible. I think orange is best with replacing the missing panels with black. Only reason I'm so hesitant on Blue is because I already the Bugatti and Aston Martin in the 1:8 scale. I might try the white using the RSR wheel arches and modiying them since they're only 2 studs short. The wheel looks like it should fit with no issues.

It's out in Europe, seems like Aug 1 for NA, not sure about anywhere else... I don't understand why such a large gap. Thought maybe VIP would have access June 1. Might be a logistical issue with getting the sets to NA given everything that's going on.

For anyone that wanted to know about the colour choice and hasn't seen this yet. I fully agree with the mindset Yesterday, LEGO Technic Senior Designer Aurelien Rouffiange (not pictured) was asked questions by the LEGO fan community about the new Lamborghini Sián FKP 37. Many people wanted to know why they chose lime green? ⠀ ⠀ Aurelien: “We tried different greens and different colours, but the main reason we chose to go for this one was because first, the car was revealed in green as well and we wanted to match that in a way so it's similar to the real world colours. But they made 63 cars each with a unique colour, and none of them would be the same. So we thought it was important for us to also create that uniqueness and have own colour as well. So it's maybe the car #64! Also, the lime green, it's flashy and it's in your eyes! – to us, it is very much the Lamborghini DNA colour scheme.”

I thought the Chiron suspension sag/softness was due to useing the friction pins. Awesome review so far - the Chiron did have a tile btw
