Description

A serious build for adult fans

Ferrari F40 sits in LEGO® Creator Expert, a range built for adult fans who want an accurate scale replica rather than a play set. At 1,158 pieces and without a single minifigure, every part goes towards the car itself – chassis, body panels and interior detail – rather than a scene around it. The build works through the model in stages, starting with the underlying structure before layering on the bodywork, which makes the construction feel closer to assembling a scale model kit than a typical LEGO set.

The car behind the model

The real Ferrari F40 launched in 1987 to mark the brand's fortieth anniversary and remains one of the most celebrated supercars ever built – reportedly the last model Enzo Ferrari personally signed off before his death. Its pop-up headlights, compact proportions and prominent rear wing gave it a silhouette that's still instantly recognisable decades later. The LEGO® set follows that shape closely, translating the F40's distinctive lines into brick form without needing a driver figure to make the connection to the original car obvious.

Red leads a focused palette

Red, dark bluish grey, black and light bluish grey make up the palette, mirroring the real car closely: red carries the bodywork, while the greys and black cover the chassis, wheels and mechanical detailing. That clear split keeps the finished model reading as a sports car from a distance, not just a pile of red bricks. Sorting parts by colour before starting makes it easy to separate bodywork from structural pieces, and the colour breakdown on this page lists exactly which reds and greys appear in the set.

258 parts worth tracking

Across 258 unique parts and 1,158 pieces total, the F40 carries a fair amount of detail for a vehicle model, much of it in small body and suspension elements. The full parts list on this page catalogues every one individually, which matters if you're after a specific red body panel or wheel piece – for a repair, or just to check a part's exact shape before ordering a replacement. It's a useful reference for anyone building a shelf of LEGO® Creator Expert cars and wanting to compare parts across sets.
