Meatman Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Are we really getting small panels for side mirrors again? Quote

Touc4nx Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 I really hope it won't be that strange green color (even thought they could reintroduce metallic green) It might be a good occasion for big wheel arches in a more common color (like red, black, white or even yellow) Quote

You can see the small curve at the top which divides the section with pinholes and the round section. Edited January 28, 2020 by Didumos69 Quote

Vectormatic Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Honestly, im waaaay too freakingh hyped about this set. I dont really see what this set would add in terms of features above what the Chiron already has, but im not a big bugatti/porsche fan, Lamborghini on the other hand, i think their road cars are second only to Ferrari, and sometimes not even that. Getting to build one in Technic form and having that sit besides the Chiron and GT3RS is just really awesome. My only worry (especially since we've got the community to fix any design flaws) is the choice of colour, it is really hard to find any pics of the Sian in any colour other then that weird green/goldish tint, and i would hate it if the model ends up being landrover olive. IMHO it needs to be a uniquely lambo colour, like yellow and black, or lime green (close to Verde Mantis on the Huracan) Quote
Meatman Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 I just hope they finally have the suspension issues fixed in this model. My Bugatti's front suspension drags on the ground. Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted January 28, 2020 Author Posted January 28, 2020 The only pieces so far that has the metallic green color are the panels from 8466. Quote

Also, I hope for chromed/silver wheels this time. I find black as on the 911 boring and the blue on the Chiron makes those wheels hard to use for any other model. Quote
efferman Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Is it only me or is this the silhouette of a countach? Quote
Aerolight Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 same here but the countaches roof dip does not continue to the front - the mirrors are closer to scale for the contach but still too large. But the sides of the front bumper are straight from a us spec late model countach but this might just be to the use of lego. The sian is to the next gen lambo what the revinton was to the aventador so it might be the next gen main v12 from lambo which will take a lot of design ques from the sian (and the countach) hence the slight differences.

WvG_853 Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 No surprise here ... I hope indeed that they choose a good colour! For the rest, I’m already looking forward to @jb70‘s Pimp my Lambo version! Quote
paul_delahaye Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Geese, I've still not built the Bugatti. Better get busy over the coming months. Quote
Paul Boratko Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Lego even threw a clue in the promo as to what the model is going to be. Very clever... Quote

valenciaeric Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 So, the main technical differences between this and the Chiron are the door opening system and electric hybrid feature. I wonder if and how Lego will incorporate the latter. Quote

Jaromir Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) If it will be Sian, I am curious how they will build the front lights. I hope they wil not be as a sticker or print. According to rear lights of an Aventador, yes they do look the same and TBH I don't mind having Aventador instead of Sian :). So I can't wait for the first pics.

I wonder if and how Lego will incorporate the latter. Lamborghinis website makes mention of "smart materials", stuff like engine bay vent flaps opening due to high temperature without any eletronics (they use temperature activated springs). It also feature a carbon monocoque, so expect a "mariage" type build like the chiron, with the engine/gearbox on a subframe. Active aerodynamics (which the Chiron also has with the wing) and rear wheel steering. As for the Aventador, if you look at the silhouette in the picture, the roof line of the aventador is more "double bubble" then the straight high-low-high lines of the Sian, which the lego model mirrors. Also, the Y-shape in all the promo material is bright/blue like in the Sian, rather then red as in the Aventador. Another pointer for me is that the Aventador is 9 years old by now, and will probably be replaced this/next year, if it isnt the Sian, my money would be on a "to be announced" Aventador succesor over the Aventador itself.

Jurss Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I understand roof line, but I at the moment cna't imagine how sides are made, there is also some slight inside dent some kind of one stud. Maybe there will be some new panels? Quote
