I think this will be much less the case with the Bugatti. The model looks awesome, but there are much less Bugatti owners than Porsche owners or adults dreaming about a Bugatti. So I think that the customer base for this model will be smaller ... A Porsche 911 is a car that, depending on priorities in life, many people actually can hope to be able to own some day. The Bugatti Chiron, not so much. Quote

I am just loving these podcasts. The Bugatti and Lego stories sound very interesting and inspiring :) Quote
Jim Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Live from Billund! There’s more on my Flickr. Feel free to link. @Milan maybe you can frontpage some stuff. Quote
Didumos69 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) @Appie, @Meatman, the DNR looks like this. The 16t clutch gear is for reverse and the 20t clutch gear is for the gearbox. The axle with the 16t gear runs from rear diff to front diff (without center diff). The outpout of the gearbox runs back to the same axle at the other end of the gearbox (that was what you meant right, @Meatman?). The 24t with clutch appears to be part of the engine - DNR drive train. I don't understand why. Edited June 1, 2018 by Didumos69 Quote
Bartybum Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Man it’s $600 here in Australia RIP all hopes of getting it Edited June 1, 2018 by Bartybum Quote

I did the same thing with Porsche and it turned out much cheaper then in local stores. Just now, ShowsOn said: The live stream is about to start! Right time to pause the podcast Quote
Didumos69 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Quiet please, I'm watching . So, @Sariel is doing a live build at 11:30 CET. Edited June 1, 2018 by Didumos69 Quote

valenciaeric Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 420 euros in some countries. Good luck selling them at that price, Lego. Quote
TeamThrifty Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 thats rull rrp though.. it will be available for less very quickly. A lot less in 6 months or so. Quote
valenciaeric Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 So from the first reviews it seems the gearbox has the same issues as the 911 - no limiter so yo can go round and round the speeds and the order is not correct in relation to engine speed. Looks like modders are going to have some work. Quote

It is shameful, 369 Germany 399 other countries 419 in Spain ...... It´s better buy it an amazon.de or uk than lego.com its ridiculous Quote
