The wheels are 3D-printed, similar to my original MOC. They will not match on T-Lego´s LaFerrari because it´s in smaller scale on smaller wheels.

@Raymonndo these, except for 2x bars 4L for the bottom lights:

As @agrof explained (thanks), it´s not recommended to buy either the cheap fake copies nor the stolen instructions included from the mentionned websites or anywhere except individual parts from bricklink / instructions from rebrickable. I fear we´re walking on thin ice to say it here on a Lego dedicated forum, but to help you I suggest two exceptions: the exhaust pipe (which is not available for a long time already) and chromed rims (which have been banned by TLC after highjacking BL). You may consider to buy the 42056 Porsche (used) set containing 57% of the parts, some other you might have on stock already and the rest to be bricklinked.

It´s all a matter of taste. I´ve had chosen the full chromed on the right. The color is rather kind of darker shiny gun metal than silver. "Normal" chrome simply isn´t available there.

@dls7223685 : you are talking about "us", "our studio" and so on. Who are you? A company? A "MOCers association"? I personally will not forgive you claiming a renowned original design as yours / one of your "designers". It was the overall winner of the famous Porsche design contest, just in a white/blue combo. No mention of the original designer, instead claiming it for somebody else. An absolute no-go, especially on this forum .

No need to be angry in this case because Madoca himself is not. Of course it´s bold and outrageous what they are doing. If anybody is willing to distribute building instructions or upload anything on rebrickable - no chance to stop it.

That´s one mindblowing PR gag (again), the next step following a brillant long-term strategy. It made me laugh and cry inwardly at the same time. Really, those people in the highest floors of the HQ are flying so high, it´s unbelievable . The harder will the impact be after landing some day. They are kicking you in your megablocks "softly" and don´t realize their own megablocks soon will be hurt so badly ... "We value your creativity and hope that you continue to enjoy.." Let´s hope they don´t dare to do so, but it would be a logical next step to "drain the swamp". Nothing will be left afterwards. It will not be the end of the hobby, but it will be the launch back to the middle ages. And no, they can never stop me building what I want to build, that´s for sure. Looking at the 2020 lineup and comparing it to e.g. 2013 leaves you with no big choice than what you said.

Raise the airbrake all the way up. Disconnect the grey 16 gear on the bottom and make sure the movement goes smoothly back and forth. Find the middle position of the spoiler, then engage. Correct .

Thanks for your attention. I believe once I even had considered to use your solution, but then changed it back to the shown above - don´t remember for what (admittedly stupid) reason that was . I hope I could rescue you from the boredom of "the common" for a while It´s not supposed to be disassembled at any time anyway. If so, use an axe or hammer, I don´t care then . Not exactly. First of all, in the times of PC one should emphasize: it´s not a Ferrari! (only a replica, "inspired by"). So it´s supposed to be an "inspired by 488 Pista" or something. Sorry to disappoint you, but I can´t tell you anything more about it by now and not on this forum. Stay tuned for a few months .

Your building skills and especially the frequency you are pumping out these cars are mindblowing! I would prefer this cute Porsche a hundred times over the 42096 on my shelf. I guess if these wheels would be white, the whole appearance was unbeatable.The proportions are good, nice yet simple basic functions. Great job again !

@MinusAndy: Can you please leave a reference to which real racecar this replica is based on? Is this supposed to be an Escort? Sorry if I´m so ignorant, but I couldn´t find anything matching your version properly by google . I suppose the wheel archtes would look better if simply leaving the flex axles or maybe using a double row of them. Otherwise it looks promising, especially the chassis and engine details. And I love those wheels too .

Or the opposite - there has to be some continuation of one specific color. Then the original car has been presented in that olive green and the unique number 63 on it. Anything else would be a big surprise and extraordinary welcomed! You name it! "They are fighting us MOCers" - I can´t get over this thought for some reason..

I could bet it´s coming in the same color like the Defender. Good for all the military guys, very bad for supercar builders . What else could you expect from the company nowadays...

My all-time-favourite is the hauler designed by @designer-han almost a decade (!) ago. Regardless the proportions I apreciate the fact that with this set we are getting a variety of nice panels in YELLOW which weren´t available so far. That widens my opportunities a lot for building a nice supercar in that color .

Nobody on this forum is interested in what you are telling here.

@howitzer: great job, thank you for that! I even didn´t realize some of the parts fall into the "Technic panels" category .

I think it´s impossible to install these components into this model without sacrificing the whole chassis . And I have no intention to buy / test them at any time in any of my MOCs, because I just can´t see any smallest advantage over the good old PF system combined with SBricks.

The terms "sustainable" and "radical ideas" are very contradicting IMO. The comfort and many other achievements we are living in today, at least in the countries where real Lego is available and payable for average people, is in danger if people are being empowered who want to save the whole galaxy, but aren´t able to take on responsibility of their own life. Means first organize your psyche, clean your room, pay your bills, raise children, build a home for your family and perhaps then move beyond that environment. Please keep out Donald T and Greta out of this forum along with politics as a whole!

It depends, as far as I´m concerned various sellers offer 2x pcs in one lot, usually it´s shown in the item description. The link above offers 1 rim + 1 tire per lot. The modules in the manual / RC chassis are very similar, but they all have small differences regarding the mechanics, the points for the separation are at the same places. Although you theoretically could interchange the modules from both versions, it doesn´t make a lot of sense, since you want to build the one or the other. The modularity itself was a challenge I´ve put for myself, also helpfull for designing the car respecitvely keep the functions at the same place. And of course the intention was to make it more interesting to assemble, easier to disassemble / modify as well. Another idea was to offer several motorization options in the RC version where the modularity comes in handy, although practically you need to tinker quite a bit to downgrade the drivetrain.

The chromed "Porsche" rims I was presenting in this topic were bought from ebay, I don´t remember from where they came exactly. TLG doesn´t offer anything like this and moreover after highjacking bricklink you can´t buy them there as well. One famous seller has created his own website now for chromed parts: http://www.chromeblockcity.com/ If you are referring to the matte silver Bugatti wheels which I´ve put on and photographed recently next to Charbel´s McLaren 720S - these were purchased from here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32963438081.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.57fa4c4d1obM5p Side note: my comment in my previous post regarding not using any clone parts wasn´t about rims. I just wanted to make clear that I didn´t use non-Lego motors and PF components other than SBrick/Buwizz. I fear somebody want to nail me on that as well ...

I think you are a lover of rice cookers . IMO the black/white color combo looks unspectacular. Of course you have not many other options, but e.g. red on chromed bugatti wheels would look much better, since you already "broke the law" by using non-Lego wheel arches, they exist in red somewhere as well. Also I´m not a fan of the tiles above the rear wheel arch. EDIT: And I miss the sleeping eyes of the older RX7

Congratulations on this fantastic replica! Reminds me of the film "1966 Ford vs. Ferrari" I´ve seen recently, a great movie doing justice to this legendary car. Finishing first and second at Sebring was business as usual for the Ford GT back then ...

Your Hoonigans are your best creations and therefore successfull regarding their popularity. I´m having a blast chasing them at Forza Horizon . The performance is probably the best you can get out of it, although Sariel´s Pagani Zonda was faster and lighter because of its body made of flex axles. You´ve put a superb looking livery on it on top .

Hi @mschaap , welcome to EB. Although I must say if you are using clone parts you are in the wrong forum. My car was designed with Lego parts and the only considarable third party components were BuWizz and SBrick - there the motors are combined on the same channel and no problems.

It´s obvious you want to implement some of the RC functions, so you will need the RC instructions plus follow the link in my previous post. It would be helpfull to have the instructions of the manual version too and fill the gaps accordingly where the drive motors / 1 battery go. We can continue our conversation in private, I´ll PM you in a minute.
