I sure about Dakar Mini, because have seen a leak)) About Ferrari F40 also sure. Also should waiting a Dodge Challenger)

November 19, 20186 yr What a tease! A leaked catalog but all speed champions or blank! The fun never stops :)Â But at least we know the manufacturers.Â
November 20, 20186 yr The main question now - what is two chevy cars lego has taken. Because chevrolet cars hasn't won any race in 2018. Only indyrace. So it takes a hope for vintage garage with corvette or camaro. Edited November 20, 20186 yr by 00bricker

So it takes a hope for vintage garage with corvette or camaro. I think the Chevy is going to be a stand alone car. It could be either three cars: Mid Engined C8 Corvette, Corvette C7R or SS Nascar.

Chevy also took the manufacturer's trophy in 2017. Keep in mind: it takes time to design a set--it's pretty rare we get something like the McLaren 720S released simultaneously. This is why this year had the Porsche 919 LMP1 and not the Nürburgring-beating 919 Evo. If the Chevy is a double-set, what would be really incredible would be if it turned out that the rumors were true and the mid-engined C8 is going to be called the Zora. Then the double would be the Zora + a C3 with a minifigure of Arkus-Duntov. Edited November 20, 20186 yr by OpenBagTwo Zora

I'd hope for the mid-engined C8, but General Motors has yet to unveil it themselves. Point being, I think 2020 (at the very least) would be more likely of a year to see that model come to the playtheme. Edited November 21, 20186 yr by Digger of Bricks

This! And with the street version already done, makes for a great base for the/a GT version. Chevy has been testing a MR vett for decades. It’s so unorthodox to the brand, we’re likely to not see a version beyond Porches one off MR 911 for GT racing only.Â
November 23, 20186 yr If you like this car in real life, then you might want to check the leaked SC photo on Insta. Â

Out of the two leaks I've seen so far - note here that I am not a car enthusiast and am really only interested in Speed Champions for the cars' potential to be used as civilian vehicles in City layouts - the McLaren Senna, 75892, looks much nicer, whereas the  Ferrari F40 is kind of boxy and plain. Sad thing is, it's the more realistic of the two for my purposes . . but screw that. It's my city, and my citizens will have cars that are nice to look at! Realism be damned! XD
November 23, 20186 yr The F40 looks alright. It's also the "Competitzione" version which looks more like this: Â That said, I can see this easily being modified to be the road F40 when these come out.
November 23, 20186 yr By the way, there is a 1x1 plate in the sides with the Ferrari logo in the lateral. If I'm not wrong, that can't be a sticker.

November 23, 20186 yr OMFG, hype! The F40 is one of my favorite ferraris, getting one in SC form is awesome! I might end up picking up two, one in standard competizione form, one to convert to normal spec (im thinking recoluor the spoiler, delete the splitter, modify the bonnet stickers) Judging from the leaks so far, this might actually be my only SC buy next year (as im slowly losing interest in the theme, and i dont really care much for chevy/modern minis), but what an awesome car to get in SC form!
November 23, 20186 yr Wow a lot of new leaks! I like the F40, it would fit nice next to my 10248! The classic Mini looks great, I'm no fan of the buggy and I still like the McLaren :) Americal muscle cars have never been something for me.Â
November 23, 20186 yr YES!! Nascar Camaro! And The Classic Mini is a 5 wide!!! Now all we need is the Dodge set. I'm praying for a Charger Daytona/Superbird!
November 23, 20186 yr Does the classic Mini have new mudguards? They look like sausages but there is no way to put them that way.

November 23, 20186 yr From what we've seen so far, I'm really digging the F40 and that five-wide '67 Mini!   Now, while it is cool to see yet another Camaro set from this theme, I still prefer the look and construction of 2016's road version from the double pack. 1 hour ago, K_Tiger said: F40!
