Ferrari Daytona SP3 Reviews
“There’s a quote, in Vol. 1 of the instruction book, from Carlo Palazzani, Head of Sports Car Exterior Design at Ferrari. He says: “The main task for the model wasn’t to produce a faithful replica of our original car – it was being able to distil its fundamental spirit.” To... More that end, it must be said the designers have succeeded.”
Brick Fanatics
“As a finished model, it’s one that looks best from a distance, not least because of its size – you have to step back to drink it all in. From there you can pick out the hints of Ferraris that have gone before. The front wings that are reminiscent of the 308, the curves of... More the 330 P4 and that rear that can only have been inspired by the none-more-’80s Testarossa.”

About Technic
TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
