As explained by Ferrari, this idea was born and grew practically hand in hand with the construction of the actual car, in the middle of the pandemic period where people were forced to home and think about something new.
After working on the 738-piece Ferrari Lego F1, 1,360-piece Enzo Ferrari and 1,327-piece 599 GTB Fiorano, designer Uwe Wabra collaborated in real time with Maranello, first communicating via video calls on every single aspect that led to a very detailed and faithful – in pure Lego style – to then go to Emilia to meet the Head of Design, Flavio Manzoni, and his men.
Like all Technics, the Daytona SP3 also reproduces active suspension, V12 engine with movable pistons, 8-speed sequential gearbox and steering, in addition to the novelty of the ‘wingspan’ doors that had never been produced on the Lego Technic, activated by a button hidden. In addition, in the bonnet and on the dedicated plate to be combined on display with the car there is the unique serial number with which to unlock special contents visible online.
