As much as I enjoy watching videos of truly impressive and astounding LEGO creations, it also makes me feel pretty embarrassed about the things I used to build. And none moreso than Sheepo’s LEGO Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet which is built from almost 3,500 parts, weighs just over 8lbs. and is powered by 8 electric motors.
It has everything from real locking doors, an emergency hand brake, a retractable hard-top roof and spoiler and a 7-speed gearbox complete with reverse. The photos of his creation on his blog are impressive, but if you consider yourself a true AFoL you’ll want to spend the 7+ minutes needed to watch this video walkthrough of all its features being demonstrated.
And if you think you’ve seen something like this before, you probably have. A few years ago there was a video floating around of one of Sheepo’s previous creations, an incredibly detailed LEGO Bugatti Veyron. But I think this certainly one-ups it.

I remember when I was a kid and the time when I was building lego. Man I’m nowhere as good as the guy who did this Porsche 911. It makes me feel like I wish I was as good as this guy right now. Man you’re good! three thumbs up!
