This isn&#8217;t the kind of Lego set you can build on your lunch break; it will likely take several evenings&#8217; worth of work to put together. The tradeoff is that the GT is stunningly realistic: finished in blue with white stripes, the coupe features relatively accurate proportions and moving parts.<\/p>\n<p>Like the real GT, the Lego version is equipped with a V6 engine that spins the rear wheels via a differential, a functioning steering system, and doors that swing up rather than out. The rear spoiler is adjustable, and Lego even re-created the air vents positioned behind the doors. The wheels are fairly generic, however; they feature the same design as the ones that come with Lego Technic&#8217;s Porsche 911 RSR kit.<\/p>\n<p>Retailers online and around the world will begin receiving Lego Technic&#8217;s Ford GT in March 2023, and suggested pricing is set at $120 excluding tax. If the Ford GT isn&#8217;t your cup of tea, the Danish company has plenty of other cars in the pipeline for 2023. It teamed up with <a class=\"injectedLinkmain\" href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/bugatti\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:2;\">Bugatti<\/a> to make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2023\/01\/03\/lego-kit-bugatti-bolide\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:3;\">a 905-piece Bolide kit<\/a> and it will add five cars, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2023\/01\/03\/lego-speed-champions-new-car-models-mclaren-pagani-porsche\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:4;\">including the McLaren F1 LM<\/a>, to its Speed Champions collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lego Technic has added the Ford GT to its catalog of 1\/12-scale cars.
