Recommendation: meh 4.8 / 5 from 17 reviews

These new 2020 racers are fun to build but they do sit at a larger scale than the old 2015-2019 models. I think the added detail and parts warrants the price increase. This took me about 30-45 min to build. See the picture for scale.

Recommendation: meh 4.64 / 5 from 51 reviews

I've always been a fan of the GT-R. The bigger size of the new Speed Champions set helps this model look great. Slight error in the building instructions step 39 on page 30 does not show where to put the pieces but it is easy to work out as they are shown in situ in the next step. I did have to rebuild the 'engine bay' several times before I could get the bonnet cover to fit. There are a lot of stickers and it is worth taking your time with them to get them right. A steady hand and a tweezers I find are a big help. Young builders may need a hand to get them right.
