Flicking through Youtube the other night, I tripped over this wickedness. It’s a 997 Turbo Cab with working PDK transmission, all remote control and all made from Lego.
Some stats:
- 3,500 parts: all standard Lego
- All-wheel drive
- Working 7-speed PDK dual clutch gearbox
- Disc brakes all ’round
- Working lights
- Folding roof & folding spoiler
- Progressive throttle
- Working steering wheel with same 2.6 turn ratio as the real car
- Motorised handbrake
The car recently won the AFOL (Adult fans of Lego) Technic 2011 Build of the Year competition. I repeat that it is all standard Lego parts and totally awesome work.
Sorry if you’re not into this stuff: I grew up mad about Lego and my two youngest girls have the bug too. Technic is great – think my first was a Harley with sidecar. Long time ago!
Get more details on the creator’s super website: Sheepo’s Garage. Let’s have the video:

Geez, just the pdk is impressive by itself !
I’m a Lego fan but a few weeks ago i couldn’t resist this megabloks kit…

I like it – guessing Megablox have the Porsche licence stitched up.
