Bought my first ferrari.. and its a F40!!

Paid cash.. no big deal Oh forgot to mention it's a lego car! I couldn't resist.. Haven't played with something like this since a I was a kid! Can't wait to put it together!

Anyone else go get one?!? Wish they had a 930 turbo that was this kind of kit.

Haven't opened it yet. Will be getting into it tonight and post some more detailed pics. The assembled one at the store looked really good.

Wow, those are some pretty sticky tires, Sid! ^^^^^^



Very cool F40. I was thinking of taking my son (yeah, that's the ticket) to the local Lego store tomorrow to pick up one of those F-cars.

Niiice! Saw this at the store too but wasn't to crazy about it with the detail you get with the f40 but still cool might go grab it up. I was geekin out over the ferrari semi F1 hauler and the technic VW bus. Might make a trip back soon for one of those.. bad decision to go to the store today ha I need 930 parts rather than legos... I

I have the 918 and got a 458 race car last week that was previously only available as part of a larger set, did not see the F-40. Grandson had the Ferrari put together in about 5-10 minutes. The La Ferrari did not look as cool to me, nice detail on the F-40. I also liked the Space Needle and Lincoln Memorial models they had.
