665 pieces, 190 steps, 3 hours (3 beers) of my time.

Cool little contraption. I had the kids help organize the pieces by color ahead of time making it much easier to find the right piece.

Easy install but time-consuming. Only issue I ran into was the tires kept rubbing. Turns out the cosmetic 'spoke design' goes on the inside. The uglier side faces out. That fixed it.

And you'll notice from just about every picture, this thing has over 100 cup holders.

Another cool thing is that the pieces for the grill already have the stickers installed. I guarantee that the Lego company got them straighter than I could have.

Man that thing is cool. I can’t wait to get one for myself. I like the rock climb, too!

Fun stuff! Need to get a second kit to build a 4 door. Then combine those with a Lego Mindstorm to make it mobile and programable.

That thing looks really cool. Thanks for sharing. Just looked at this today to see if I could order it yet. The lego site said "coming January 1st". Where'd you find this at?

Nice. Thanks for the detailed write up. My kids promised me this for my Christmas gift when it becomes available.
