One minor nitpick: they only give you one each of the New York and Japanese license plates, but both New York and Japan require both front and back plates; they should have included 2 each of these. Ultimately I chose to display it with the German plates anyway, so not a huge deal for me personally.
Since the most fun you have with LEGO is building, I intend to rebuild mine between Targa and Turbo frequently (built it as a Targa first). Not to mention there are already quite a few amazing alt-build MOCs for it!
i got this kit for my birthday and loved building it! looks great next to the campervan and beetle, i built the turbo version but used the targa wheels as they looked nicer
Price , the reason for making parts in specific colors is to ramp up the pieces used to lower overall piece cost. Hidden pieces are often random color depending on projects that would otherwise over saturate certain colors and under demand others.
I haven't got our bought any LEGO set since my childhood for more then 18 years. After all these Years finally I am able to surprise myself with LEGO "once again" :) I bought this set as the first, this was my Christmas present to me. I just finished building the Targa variant, and I am in love with it. Loved every second of the building, amazing how many rotation and axis there are to build. A nice positive challenge. After I'll re-build it to the Turbo, I will try to build Bricksgarage's Lamborghini Countach LC5000 MOC based on this 10295, I purchased that manual too. Your channel helped to rebuild my "passion" for LEGO :)
I was watching the Click in 7 different languages part, and right when the click happened MY TURBO FELL OF THE TABLE ONTO THE FLOOR AND I HAD TO REBUILD THE WHOLE THING?!! Great vid👍
I just got this set on 2022. I went for Turbo version which look more stunning. This set look even more stunning at top of Car Transporter together with Ford Mustang.
I built a targa turbo. It required 1.04 worth of parts to complete the spoiler. Seems like LEGO could have included them. I’ve also seen someone do a narrow body coupe that looks good. And I ordered it on launch day but did not get the vip kit that USA customers got gypped on.
I read somewhere that the main reason why designers use coloured parts in the internal structure is to make the building experience easier and less confusing
@@ettorereventon2667 I think you may be right. I did the tumbler, which wad damn near all black and gray, making instructions somewhat difficult. not impossible, but a bit frustrating, taking away from the building experience.
For me, this set was only a few pieces away from being perfect. Aside from the missing license plates, I would've liked the kit to include parts to build the Turbo Targa.
Luckily the model looks best without the roof. Just store it and never look at it again. I just replaced both plates and reinforced the hinges in the back with an extra (invisible) bar. Compromises because of the dual build, I'm sure.
A nice build. I recently bought the Camaro. This will be my first LEGO built after maybe 30 years. 🙂 Already I am looking around for the Mustang and maybe this Porsche. Do you know if it is possible to build the Targa with the Turbo engine cover? I think it is a nice combination. 🙂
2 years and no one has mentioned the reason for the red beam on the driver's side and the blue beam on the passenger's side. It is because on the higher end cars like the Carrera GT, the wheel locks are blue on passenger side and red on driver side. Why? Because race cars.
I'm starting to suspect that they put two versions cuz then people would wanna buy two sets to have both versions on display, resulting in higher sales. 🙃
Awesome review! I've watched all your reviews for the current Lego "Creator Expert" or "Icon" cars out now. I really want to buy one of these but I can't decide which one. Of the ones out now which is your favorite? :D
Only 2 things I hate about this set 1, the plates. There's only 1 of each the US and Japanese plate, despite needing 2. And it comes with a Japanese plate without any right hand drive instructions. 2, the doors don't have any stoppers unlike the Mustang's. So the doors just open until they hit the front fender. Other than that... B E A U T I F U L
@@RacingBrick I have Porsche 917 in red with white stripes and it looks stunning. Though its not originally Lego, its been designed by German. Lego needs to try harder.
@@tomaslechky5539 there were many different Porsche sets, not just the 911 - brickset.com/sets?query=porsche It's very easy to say "LEGO needs to try harder", but a lot of times the model is chosen together with the licensing partner. If Porsche wants to see yet another iteration of the 911, then it's either that or nothing.
TBH I would rather they’d have done a red Porsche with loads of hidden white 1x1s than a white Porsche with red hidden 1x1s. All I see with white Lego sets is yellow ones waiting to be born 🤨🤬
@@UAF16 calm down with the caps anyways, and its 150$. btw you would not be able to get food or important stuff because you wanted a porsche. you remind me of 12 year old JDM fanboys
I am all good except for the white color, it will turn yellowish after a few years, I often avoid technic sets that has white as main color. had enough of it.

Building techniques are way too cool ! You are the only one who shows these in the review so thank you !
Sariel talked about them too
I love it how this car took the concept from the mustang and took it to a brilliant extreme
There's also storage for the New York and Tokyo plates in the front boot. Nice detail so they don't get lost if you have the German plates on
Man, you must be a huge car guy top notice details like that, im honestly impressed.
The Japanese plates are actually Gunma prefecture which is interesting. Maybe a designer is an Initial D fan?
I wish I'd seen this comment a year ago. I think I lost them now lol

Fantastic design. Great buildings. I've bought two sets, so I have both.
You shall check out LC5000 Lamborghini Countach variant of this set from Bricks Garage, amazing
@@andras.89 I'm going to see it. Tanks!
I feel like it would be nice to have resealable bage when you down with switching it over you had a bag to pit the extra parts in
Definietly one of the best Lego cars
This and the mustang are the best lego cars
I just got this set on 2022. I went for Turbo version which look more stunning. This set look even more stunning at top of Car Transporter together with Ford Mustang.
Yes! Thank you for reviewing this set!

Mine is just screaming at me, desperate to be built; can’t wait for a day off to get started!
Bought this today. Amazing.
I've built both and ended up builing a mix of the 2 (the turbo minus the spoiler) aka base 911
I think this is the best looking creator expert car
The best review, by far 👍🏼😊
WOW! thanks so much! I'm sorry if I pressured you... I love this and can hopefully buy it
No worries, glad you like it :)
Excellent review. The techniques used by Mike feel almost illegal. Not sure why so many colored pieces in odd places, but who knows... :)

A friend of mine whose a lego nerd told me the reason why they have random colourful pieces is that the designers are encouraged to do it
One thing that’s missing for me is the vent on the rear wheel arch for the turbo. A basic print would’ve been enough
Cool set! Good job 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
I’m so exited to build this set
Omg i love this set sooo much
Could you make a video where you try to make a turbo targa, the 930 targa has the same wide axle, whale tail and engine but with the targa roof
do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it
For me, this set was only a few pieces away from being perfect. Aside from the missing license plates, I would've liked the kit to include parts to build the Turbo Targa.
You sound so excited in this video!
I built the turbo version and used part # 37775 in the exhaust I found laying around
Excellent review. :)
I like the turbo the most
Some the steps to this set are confusing but well worth it in the end
Brilliant review as always!
The targa roof looks kinda weird with the light grey visible at the front. It also seems to be a bit too narrow.
Luckily the model looks best without the roof. Just store it and never look at it again. I just replaced both plates and reinforced the hinges in the back with an extra (invisible) bar. Compromises because of the dual build, I'm sure.
i think you can try to mix versions like puting the soft roof on the turbo version
Well Done, Thanks for your help!
Great build, I just wish the engine had more detail and working pistons.
there is a technic porche that I believe has the moving pistons
Yes the rsr but i think this is better for displaying
I NNEEEEEEDDD ITTTTT
If you build one variant of this car, will you be able to change it back to the other variant
You can, but it's not that easy
Nice, simply nice!!
This set is my dream sett and as it’s soon going to be retired I’m dead terrified I won’t be able to get it in time 😭
You got a couple months
Yeah but I can’t rlly afford it 😅
Do you think can i build the turbó with the targa wheels?
sure
Someone should design an RWB kit for this
Building this right now
so which version is better? 🤔
A nice build. I recently bought the Camaro. This will be my first LEGO built after maybe 30 years. 🙂
Already I am looking around for the Mustang and maybe this Porsche. Do you know if it is possible to build the Targa with the Turbo engine cover? I think it is a nice combination. 🙂
its not possible since you use the pieces of the spoiler on the upper side of the targa roof
Turbo all the way imo
Can you have coupe roof without spoiler? I want a 911 carrera
Yes you can by Simply build the turbo roof and the targa hood.
The set Is pratically 3 in 1.
Even 4 because you can also easly build a cabrio version
I bought this set to make the lambo moc
I also ignored the big red x until after I’d built it.
2 years and no one has mentioned the reason for the red beam on the driver's side and the blue beam on the passenger's side. It is because on the higher end cars like the Carrera GT, the wheel locks are blue on passenger side and red on driver side. Why? Because race cars.
It would have been awesome if these cars were green
That's a weird way to say Lamborghini Countach
Will those wheels fit the T2 Camper van ? if so that gives me another reason to plop down some cash on this.
I'm not sure but I think the wheels on the T2 are the same size but narrower, so these would stick out a bit
For me, they just needed to have 5 dials. It's extremely out of place seeing 4 dials in a 911...
I'm starting to suspect that they put two versions cuz then people would wanna buy two sets to have both versions on display, resulting in higher sales. 🙃
This set has no stickers right?
No
Awesome review! I've watched all your reviews for the current Lego "Creator Expert" or "Icon" cars out now. I really want to buy one of these but I can't decide which one. Of the ones out now which is your favorite? :D
ECTO-1 has probably the best building techniques
bro the click part got me laughing!!
I wish it was in yellow

Other than that...
B E A U T I F U L
I would do the turbo since the it was in forza
I am quite sure that the Targa had the darker (design is kind of naked/simple) rims too. I guess i'm wrong...
Your video is so detail its very cool
Please do the octo 1 like dise
Please can u do close ups of the parts list and all pages of the book so we can buy the bricks from cheap websites
good video, but would be better without music

@@RacingBrick Honestly, I see most of them are 911 iterations.
@@RacingBrick I like how this 911 Creator set looks from back side, but hope there will be no more 911 sets.
technically its a 3 in 1
i dont think this should be an 18 plus set
i think kids should be able to make this no problem
(im 14 btw)
18+ is not an age rating, it shows that it is not a playset but rather something for casual adult builders
However, this set will sadly turn yellowish-white over time
TBH I would rather they’d have done a red Porsche with loads of hidden white 1x1s than a white Porsche with red hidden 1x1s. All I see with white Lego sets is yellow ones waiting to be born 🤨🤬
Nice display model, but not much use as it is too big for minifigs. Just sayin'
Whats the damn price of it I LOVE LEGOS AND IM A PORSCHE LOVER

calm down with the caps, btw what if the porsche costed 1 zillion cash.
