Awesome! Agreed. It sounds like you over-do things like me.

Is over doing it buying one to put together and one to keep in the box? I had 3 GT3RS and did a buddy a solid and sold it to him at cost. They were going for around $500 on eBay.
By my standards? Mandatory. I like where this thread is going. RSR and Lambo look amazing - they all do. I’m excited to build RSR.

Completed the Lamborghini. I must say, the detail around the front grill and rear decal is pretty awesome. Scissor doors, active aero rear wing, headlight details, Lego certainly knows how to design these sets. I’ll also add that I’m most amazed that there are rarely any missing pieces and only 1 or 2 extra tiny bits, and the instructions without a single word are about as clear and easy to follow as if they sent a guy to your house to talk you through the build. I’d love to see that factory, how they package up the bags to make sure they have the right pieces. We took a factory tour in Stuttgart a few summers ago, I bet that the LEGO factory is every bit (almost) as impressive.
I recently built the Defender and the Chiron. Defender is surprisingly solid and the functionality of the gearbox and transfer case are pretty neat. The "W16" Chiron engine was also fun to build. It's very easy to nerd out with the engineering of these models. I think the next one will be the 919 by Charbel https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-553...ory=1#comments.
Just need to find or design the matching stickers for the 919!
