Tech Trend 247

Want a fast way to kill a weekend (pun intended)? Look no further than the Lego Porsche GT3 RS.

If you're a sports car enthusiast or not, the Lego Techic replica of the Porsche GT3 RS road-going race-car should prove a delightful challenge. That's because it has 2,704 pieces, including 6-cylinder engine complete with moving pistons and working gearbox.

The mind-boggling attention to detail doesn't end with the drivetrain components, though. This 1:8-scale bright-orange beauty boasts red suspension springs, adjustable rear wing and four original-design rims bearing the RS emblem.

On the dash, you'll even find a glove compartment containing a unique serial number.

Not surprisingly, the two fellows who designed the Lego Technic GT3 RS replica, Andy Woodman and Uwe Wabra, are both Porsche and motor-racing fans.

If you're looking to get your hands on one, the kit goes on sale June 1st and is priced at $299.99. Although it's hardly cheap, it's certainly less expensive than the real thing, which starts at $175,900.
