LEGO Technic Fast & Furious Dodge Charger R/T Car - Model 42231 (18+ Years)
Push this high-performance muscle car model across your desk to instantly see the exposed pistons of the V8 engine pump rapidly beneath the open hood line.
True Mechanical Kinematics Over Fragile Outer Shells
Standard die-cast muscle car models lack internal complexity, trapping beautiful automotive engineering behind glued plastic panels that offer zero interactive value. This 1,516-piece advanced build features an authentic rear-wheel drivetrain coupled with a cardan shaft and a fully functional gear differential. By integrating a chain-driven supercharger compressor directly with the moving cylinders, this heavy-duty layout replicates genuine street-racing mechanics rather than just sitting as a passive ornament on your shelf.
