Val-E Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 I actually prefer the Speed Champions one. This seems a bit awkward and the proportions are off. Quote
marcandre Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 It does not display well. Maybe a good toy for the kiddos to build and play with. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 Another Technic car for me to pass on, shame. I'm looking forward to the new Porsche though! Quote
crayxlp Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 think its the same shade of orange as Porsche? Quote

fuzzy_bricks Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 I think if they made new molded hood pieces, that would go a long way on improving some of these cars. Although there are plenty of other areas that need attention too. Not a fan of the orange on this one. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 Strange how the model comes across as both rounded and flat at the same time. Perhaps all the odd gaps in the front make that view feel off compared to how good the back and even sides look. As a racing car I like it; as for the specific vehicle this is supposed to be I am not sure. Quote
NIevo Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I'm sorry but this is one of the ugliest sets in a while. Love the new ZL1 Speed Champions but they destroyed the ZR1. Quote

Guest TabbyBoy Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 I've taken another look and it's even more inaccurate and butt ugly than before. Therefore, it'll be a sleeper and be a winner in the afterlife. I still won't get one as I have to like it first. Quote

Way too small for what it's supposed to represent. I saw a MOC over on Eurobricks where someone had added on additional structures at the side, which looked much more impressive.

Joey_658 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 As a huge Corvette fan this set is really disappointing to me. This could have been so much better. When it goes on clearance I’ll probably still pick one up though. Quote
g3man Posted September 17, 2020 Posted September 17, 2020 Someone added an electric motor and a separate transmission... kinda interesting: 1 Quote
