It's a Duplo Plate
" Yup, its a duplo plate. It bends. Its big. You can build on it.
Not sure what all the negative reviews are expecting for a baseplate. a little pricey but over all what you should expect in a baseplate! "

Excellent Playability
" If I would have had this set as a kid growing up I would have been over the moon. I always built my own tractors from the small amount of parts I had growing up on our farm. Now that they have produce agricultural tires makes it all the more visually pleasing. Love the tires! It's nice that the loader stays in position for moving up and down, for young up and coming Lego farm kids, this set is an excellent choice to practice those early farming skills.

Cute
" I received this set as a surprise to complete our plant/lego shelf. It adds a nice pop of color and I love the yellow.
The set itself is simple to put together and quick., however there are very slight color discrepancies when looked at closely. It does have a lot of nooks and cracks that make it look kind of unfinished, but I understand there is only so much you can do with lego bricks to create body curves.
Overall it is a nice set to build and display... but is it worth $129.99CAD +tax? Not really. I think it should be under $100 considering the value you can get for the same amount from the T1 Camper or the Beetle. For a little extra money the Mustang is also a great choice.

Fast10 your Seatbelts for this Set
" This was my first set is 5 years that I bought for myself. My wife's family are big fans of the Fast and Furious franchise, so I got an easy go ahead to buy it when it came out back in April of 2020.
Pros:
- It feels like a Dodge. hefty, chunky grumpy looking.
- Love the engine and drivetrain.
- The front back and side views look great.
- Full suspension on the back axle and independent in the front.

Cons:
- Top down view it looks like a black plastic rectangle
- Rear suspension is built a little weak for my liking. The way it is built causes some bending near the connection points on the frame when pushed on. not a deal breaker though.
- Interior feels very lacking. For this price point I get it, but at least connect the steering wheel to the actual front axle, not just attached by a connector pin for looks.
- the 2 light grey small angle pieces on each end of the back bumper tend to fall off if bumped the wrong way while moving. Almost lost them in the carpet a few times already.
- Front grille outline is a little weak and could be easily made better with less pieces, which would make it stronger and have less cracks reducing the look of many separate pieces.

All in all a great set with some functionality to make it fun to look at and interact with. If you have some parts in your spare parts bin to tweak a few things, it definitely can be a display piece in your collection, and something fun for everyone.
SIDE NOTE: If LEGO ever decides to create this iconic car in the same manner and level of detail as the Ford Mustang from the Creator Expert line, I think it would do quite well.

Absolute Unit
" This thing is BIG. I passed over this set in looking for a set to buy a number of times, but I finally looked into it and bought it. Excellent value per piece and some great functions. You can read and visualize the dimensions... but you don't really get to experience its true size until you actually put it together. This thing is a mammoth of a set in size. If I had money to throw I would buy another for the parts alone.
The only downside to this set is the slightly repetitive modules as it is almost symmetrical from front to back, however there are a few slight details and changes that make the modules different enough from each other.
Very rewarding build overall. Glad I bought it!

Excellent Little Car
" I bought this for myself as something to wind down from work just before they sold out online. Great little build and excellent display piece on our shelf. The whole family loves it. Was a little smaller and easier to build than I expected.

Good Little Set
" I bought this to go with the full size set that Lego released a few years ago, pretty cute and matches the full size one quite nicely. Excellent starter set for anyone younger wanting to start with a simple Technic set.

Solid Build
" This is a SOLID set. I was planning on buying the smaller Fiat, but my wife convinced me otherwise to spend the extra money and get the Mustang. It is a beautifully created set packed with detail (the engine being my favorite). When you pick it up, it does not seem flimsy or fragile. I love that some of the decals are printed (which removes the stress of having to get sticker decals perfect for someone with OCD like me).
I really hope that LEGO decides to create more classic car sets like this one in the Creator Expert line. Very sharp display set and enjoyable build, would definitely recommend it to any LEGO or Mustang enthusiast!
