ChadWick1e46 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Overall, I was skeptical at first about the 42083 so I haven’t pulled the trigger yet, but I’m very happy it’s performed so well for Lego sales. So I’m hoping to get if available during Double Vip, as most people I talk to really enjoy this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Building mine ATM. Price was reasonable compared to 420 RRP rip off. Re: packaging. It´s the USP of this set - Lego have gone to a extra level with the quality and design. Mine was an AWD and came a bit trashed but box condition will be of prime importance to the rich snobs that will be paying top dollar post EOL. The only people that have ever complained about any of my boxes have been those that bought Architecture sets and I am thinking same OCD but ten times more demanding due to the price point of this blue bad boy.

odysea11 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I thought I would share this article from the WSJ a couple of weeks ago...probably not enough exposure to bump sales...but at least a little more mainstream positive attention aimed at those with disposable incomes.

Without knowing the Belgian market, I'd say that you may be able to get it for a bit less if you wait. It's a decent price though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclejeffie Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Thx i could get the lamborghini also for that price. Still doubting. Never bought a technic as investment before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maestro Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Seems this can be bought with 35% off in EU. Total price $280. Worth buying 1 for investment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, but you'll be competing with UK sellers who got it from argos this week at 45% off Edited October 21, 2021 by roxio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sozial Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 2 hours ago, roxio said: Possibly, but you'll be competing with UK sellers who got it from argos this week at 45% off Is he really? Since UK moved out of EU, there are no more sellers on EU amazon sites. There is amazon.co.uk which buys sets from sellers in the UK but they have to factor in customs so there is no direct competition anymore. I do not know if I am happy that UK sellers cannot or with greater restictions sell on Amazon EU (same goes for me), I made about 15% of my revenue in UK. Lets see this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceFan9 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 For the gear-heads: Bugatti Top Speed Test There's an accompanying dash-cam video that's fun to watch, too. For those of us without a $300M+ net worth, there's always the Technic model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody around knows that he has a taste for supercars. He can be looked up in Wikipedia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Just having gotten back into technic and knowing I wanted to get the P1 Day 1, now someday instead thanks to Lego for being so shifty, I still needed this one and the Ferrari to have all of the Super Cars. I was able to grab this still new sealed in original first run shipping box 4R8 for less than MSRP 6 years later off of eBay. Now I need to find a deal on the Ferrari.

I just need the lambo before it goes next year I think and the original Porsche which would cost $900 on ebay. not sure I want it bad enough to pay that for it but having the complete line of super cars would be cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
