Looking for something easy to build I saw this in the Lego store.beautiful packaging.The instruction booklet is 800 pages and has some good articles about Porsche in it.There are working features of this model, but not sure what they are yet.

If this is the first time you have ever built a technic Lego set you are in for a challenge. Good luck and enjoy. I want one but it's just not in the budget for me at the moment.

The Porsche is finished.After the Time Machine build it was nice to build something easy!! The finished model is quite impressive and quite sturdy.I built the Batman Tumbler and it was so fragile that bits fell of it every time you touched it.The porsche is much better.The gearbox works, the pistons move in the cylinders, the steering works and the gear changing flappers work.
