Why is the Lego Porsche 911 so expensive? ›

Many LEGO Technic's models are released in partnership with other brands and organizations. For example, you may see many LEGO Technic sets such as the Porshe 911 Car or the Mercedes Benz Zetros Truck. This means LEGO has to pay to acquire rights to do so. LEGO has not publicly shared the figures exactly.

As of September 2023, it costs $169.99 and could be resold for up to $195 in the right market. Even though it's still in production, people are already paying over the retail price for it. Since most sets become more valuable every year after they retire, the Porsche's worth will only go up.

The model consists of a total of 1458 parts and we estimate it takes you around 3 - 4 hours to build it. The set was designed by Mike Psiaki. The set weighs around 1.979 kg in total. Its dimensions are 18.9 x 11.1 x 4.6 inch( 48 x 28.2 x 11.8 cm).

But have you ever wondered why LEGO sets are often more expensive than other construction toys? The answer lies in the intricate manufacturing process and unwavering commitment to quality that underpins the LEGO brand.

For perspective, some of Lego's most expensive pieces such as the Lego Molding Machines and special edition Star Wars sets have been auctioned online for around $10,000. And its priciest retail sets are $850. It might very well be the most expensive Lego piece sold to date.

The LEGO Porsche 911 is the perfect tribute to a car that's still popular today.

Lego light kits, while fantastic for many reasons, do come with some costs, both in terms of money and time. These kits often include small LED lights, wires, and sometimes even custom-made pieces. Installing them can be a delicate process, requiring patience and a steady hand.

The running time for our lights depends on the battery pack and the number of lights connected. The more lights connected, the more power it draws, and therefore will not run as long as compared to a kit with fewer lights. As time goes on, the lights will slowly become dimmer as the batteries grow weaker.
