This Lego Porsche 911 is the Same Size as the Real Thing
You may have already seen the Lego Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS, which is impressively large for a build-it-yourself model at 1:8 scale.
The Lego Technic 911 GT3 RS has nothing on this, though. What you’re looking at is the life-size Lego Porsche 911 Turbo that is currently on display at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart. The big green creation is modeled after a 930 911 Turbo, but is designed to look like it was made out of Lego bricks. We admire the creativity, but it’s a good bit less attractive than the real thing, isn’t it?

The 930 Turbo was the first of the ‘Turbo’ badged 911s. It made 256 hp from its 3.0-liter turbocharged flat-six – a figure that has grown significantly in the years since the first Turbo’s release. Today, the 911 Turbo produces an insane 540 hp, and is also offered in range-topping Turbo S guise, where the model produces a ridiculous 580 hp.
The full-scale Lego 930 911 Turbo is on display at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart now. It’s clear which part of the museum it’s displayed in, but we imagine it’s pretty hard to miss.
