The Pegueot HC is the prettiest IMO.

It is very cool looking. It's a shame that Peugot changed shape of their HC

didn’t they just add a wing?

They had to change a fair bit of the underbody due to the rules

All I wanted was a 499P Lego Speed Champions. Could've bought the BMW but in terms of build and build satisfaction it's the same as the 963 which I have.

Can't wait for the Ferrari SF-24 Speed Champions.

I love this car. I also have the 488 GTE and 911 RSR to go with it, I hope they make some GT3 cars soon or more hypercars.

The Peugeot is such a good build with all its moving parts

Have the same ones myself :D Built the Peugeot last year and it was such a fun journey. Took me about a week, as I did it in two hour sittings per day, more or less :)

I re-start building Lego sets as an adult a few years ago, maybe 6 or 7, and now I have quite some sets. My first was Porsche 911 RSR followed by Ferrari 488 GTE.

This Peugeot for me is still one of the most enjoyable sets to build. It was really fun, and the ones I brought after (or were given to me) didn't overcome that joy.

In the part of overpriced I had to put the McLaren 2022 car. It isn't that well achieved set and it wasn't that fun to build, with so many empty spaces.

This month I brought as my birthday gift the Mercedes W14 as is SO much better (but below the Peugeot 9X8). My son (6 y.o.) asked Santa for the Speed of Champions W15. "Santa" just bought the 963 together. Its a pity its isn't available in Technich.

The hardest set that I built was the BMW M 1000 RR. When 75 % completed I understood I made a mistake in like page 32. Tried to avoid but had to start from scratch.

I also re-start building LEGO few years ago, I have 30 cars from Speed Champions, Perseverance, McLaren MP4/4, Land Rover Defender and this Peugot. The most fun to build is for sure McLaren and Peugot. I don't have kids yet, but for sure in future I will share my sets with them
