Your Guide to Every Ferrari Lego Kit Ever Made
The Lego Group
Long before Minifigures, Star Wars sets, movies, theme parks, or even injection-molded plastic, there were cars. Vehicles have been core to Lego since before the brand from Billund, Denmark, became synonymous with bright bricks the world over. Back in 1932, Lego’s founder, Ole Kirk Christiansen, made wood versions of utilitarian vehicles such as fire trucks, trains, and pickup trucks years before he invested in an injection-molding machine—and changed toys forever. When it comes to cars, few brands spark excitement in kids and adults like Ferrari. Lego’s first Ferrari came out in 1998, a year before the first Star Wars–branded toy, and the relationship with the prancing horse has marched on ever since. From the most basic Duplo sets aimed at toddlers to lust-worthy models it would take adults a long weekend to complete, Lego has replicated some of Ferrari’s most impressive machines, from inside to out. This is every Ferrari set Lego has produced.

While it bears the prancing horse stickers, the first Ferrari that Lego produced, in 1998, was a collaboration with Shell and sold at local gas stations. Shell provided fuel and lubricants to a young driver named Enzo Ferrari back in 1924. When the first Ferrari rolled out of Maranello in 1947 it had Shell fuel inside. Ferrari added the horse emblem to honor Francesco Baracca, an Italian World War I pilot who had it painted on his fuselage. After Baracca shot down a German plane, which carried the horse emblem borrowed from Stuttgart’s coat of arms where it was manufactured, he had it added to his fuselage (Porsche would later use the black horse to pay the same homage to its home city). The Lego version of the Ferrari F310, used during the 1996 and 1997 F1 seasons, is about 13 inches long, complete with a detailed cockpit. The hood is easily removable, showing off the first Ferrari V-10 engine.

Aimed at kids as young as 18 months old, this chunky set includes a one-piece, sticker-clad F1 car, a Minifigure, and a silver cup. During the 2004 season, Ferrari’s F2004 won 15 out of 18 races with Michael Schumacher behind the wheel for 13 of those wins, earning it a spot on Car and Driver’s Greatest Ferraris list.
Release date: May 2004

This set uses the Duplo version of the F1 from the previous set, outfitted here with a pit stop area. After race and consumer cars, Lego uses scenes like this, which embrace the Scuderia lifestyle of F1 with pit stops, garages, and transport trailers. Despite only having 37 pieces, this is the first Ferrari set to feature a baseplate and alternate institutions to create a diagnostics space where the Minifigure can crawl under the car and tinker with a wrench. After 2004, Lego never released another Duplo Ferrari set.
Release date: April 2004
Set: 8362
Pieces: 112
Following the simpler Duplo models earlier in the year, Lego releases its first batch of larger, more complex Ferraris under the Racers line, which began in 2001 and went on to cover Williams F1 and Lamborghini. These were the first sets to include traditional-sized Minfigures, albeit clad in stickers—the bane of collectors who prefer printed parts. Between the rear wheels is a Lego brick motor that compresses a metal coil as you pull back. Let go, and the energy launches the 7.5-inch long, 1:24 scale car along. Some of the better details here are a pair of operable barge boards on either side and chunky sidepods.
Release date: April 2004
Set: 8375
Pieces: 242
With some Lego fans, the number of Minfigures included in a set is indicative of its value—and this one comes with seven. The F1 car is a scaled-down version of the one in the previous set but still keeps details like sidepods and the airbox above the driver’s head. There is plenty of playability here, as the Minfigures do everything from holding signage (the lollipop man) to lifting the front end, changing tires, and refueling. The pit is outfitted with a few special tools like a wrench, hammer, oil can, and a nut driver.
Release date: April 2004
Set: 8386
Pieces: 738
At more than 18 inches long, this F1 was the largest Lego build at the time. While technically part of the Racers theme, the 1:10 scale F1 employed a bunch of Technic parts, making it the most complex build when it was released in 2004. The booklet spends about seven pages detailing the crankshaft and 10-cylinder engine with exhaust and radiator details, though there is no working suspension. The engine cover comes off easily to showcase the operable pistons. Models like this employ what designers and Lego fans call the hand of God—a shaft connecting an easy-to-turn element on top of the car that controls the front wheels without turning the steering wheel in a crowded cockpit.
Release date: April 2004
Set: 8389
Pieces: 34
This simple set has Minfigures with unique painted faces for Ferrari drivers Michael Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello, both sporting a more realistic skin tone—the first departure from the Lego classic yellow color. While the bodies are sticker clad, each driver comes with a custom, printed helmet. The glorious chrome trophy fits a Minifigure’s hand but is out of scale. Fans can re-create the drama of 2002 when Ferrari asked Barrichello to allow Schumacher to win the Austrian Grand Prix.
Release date: January 2005
Set: 8652
Pieces: 477
When the Enzo hit the streets in 2002, the angular styling was a take-it-or-leave-it proposition. Within about a year of its launch, the F1-inspired supercar found itself competing with Porsche’s Carrera GT and the Mercedes-McLaren SLR. The Pope received the last of the 400 Enzos built back in 2005, which was later auctioned. Lego designers achieved the lines on the 1:17-scale Enzo using only a few specialized bricks, which helps make the parts useful in other builds, though it includes stickers for some key parts, which bugs some Lego fans. This was also the first Lego version of a street-legal Ferrari.
Release date: March 2005
Set: 8653
Pieces: 1360
A few months after the first Enzo Ferrari set, Lego released a more detailed 1:10 scale version that relies on Technic elements. The hood opens to get a look at the V-12 engine’s working yellow pistons, and the doors swing using an air-driven pistons. While the wheels turn, they’re not connected to the steering, instead you use a hand-of-God knob. At over 1000 pieces, this was the most complex build in the Lego lineup at that point. Flipping the car over offers a great view of the detailed crankshaft.
Release date: March 2005
Set: 8654
Pieces: 813
For younger Lego fans, this set offers two elements that more advanced models don’t: Minfigures and a focus on playability. The side of the trailer opens to house the Formula 1 racer while a lever on the side detaches and sets the truck free. Six Minfigures are ready to help maintain the racer, with spare parts, tools, and even a backup engine. This is the only Lego set in 2005 to feature an F1 car.
Release date: M 2006
Set: 8671
Pieces: 559
For a set that relies heavily on stickers and without a windshield, the Lego 430 Spider does a good job of nailing the car’s details—if you can get past those headlights. Aside from the rims, most of the parts used in this set are familiar to even casual Lego builders. While Pininfarina gets the credit for styling this Ferrari’s body, the Lego version does little more than look the part: It rolls, and has a trunk and hood that open, but not much else.
Release date: January 2006
Set: 8672
Pieces: 573
The cars here are similar to those in the April 2004’s Ferrari F1 Pit, but that’s just about where the similarities end. This set is far more elaborate with a winner’s podium atop the two-bay garage, each of which is labeled with the driver’s name and nationality for Schumacher and Barrichello. A cameraman and announcer up top are ready to hand over the trophy.
Release date: January 2006
Set: 8673
Pieces: 189
A far simpler version of the earlier set—both were released in January 2006—the fuel stop has the car, a fuel cart, and a unique gold-plated helmet on the Minifigure gas attendant. And running the diagnostics, strategy, and managing the race: the bearded and bespectacled Ross Brawn, who worked with Ferrari from 1997 until 2006.
Release date: June 2006
Set: 8674
Pieces: 1246
At about 2 feet long and based on the early-2000s F1s, this 1:8 scale model was Lego’s most technical Ferrari when it was released in 2006. Unlike many other Ferraris in the Racer lineup, this one includes a working independent suspension that relies on pushrods to transfer load. From above, you can remove the engine cowl to reveal the V-10 engine and pistons, while the underside offers a clear view of the crankshaft. The 2003 season ended with Schumacher winning his sixth Drivers’ Championship and Ferrari’s fifth straight Constructors’ Championships.
Release date: January 2007
Set: 8142
Pieces: 167
Sans a body, Lego fans might not appreciate the inclusion of a Minifigure head and helmet—sure to be lost to the dark corners of any brick bin. But this 248 F1, raced during the 2006 season, like 2004’s 8362 set, has a pull-back feature that launches the racer forward. Designers managed to pull off a shapely F1 racer—including hinting at the car’s twin front spoiler—without relying on specialty pieces.
Release date: October 2007
Set: 8143
Pieces: 690
The first Ferrari street-legal ride of 2007 is a twofer: This F430 model included all the pieces to build the car in red or yellow. This is the only full-size Lego set that offers a Ferrari in anything other than the classic red. Though the same scale, and with a similar look and stickers to 2006’s F430 Spider, this set is a single-passenger car with a roof that flips up, adding a bit more playability.
Release date: March 2007
Set: 8144
Pieces: 726
F1 fans will appreciate Schumacher’s helmet in this set, printed with seven stars for each of his championships. With room for both Schumacher and Felipe Massa, set 8144 has a pair of Ferrari 248 F1s, each with a maintenance bay and eight Minfigures to help with tires, plot race strategy, and drive the three-wheeler. An alternate version of this set is the same, except for stickers and parts that feature Kimi Räikkönen, who replaced the retiring Schumacher.
Release date: June 2007
Set: 8145
Pieces: 1327
For the first time, Ferrari used an aluminum, not steel, chassis in a daily driver GT, which gave the car a longer wheelbase and longer overall length compared to the previous grand tourer, the 575M Maranello. The front-engine 599—which borrows heavily from the Enzo—employed a pair of arched pillars flanking the rear window, which push the rear of the car down without a wing. The front end of the 599 looks a lot like the 612 Scaglietti. The 1:10 scale Lego 599 has hand-of-God steering but skips a gearbox and suspension. The car’s shape relies less on bricks and more on flex rods and body panels to give it definition—a design Lego never really returns to in the Ferrari lineup. Still, the hood covering the engine, trunk, and opening doors add some pliability features to this display-worthy model.
Release date: January 2008
Set: 8153
Pieces: 270
The star of this set isn’t the F1 car, with its round yellow stud implying the driver. Rather it’s the 12-wheeler Iveco truck and trailer. The snub-nose truck has an ominous black brick windshield. The removable trailer, which holds the car, has a fold-down ramp in the rear, and doors to store the tires on the side. Like most of the Ferrari sets, 8153 is littered with stickers of F1 sponsors, from Puma to Acer, though the large prancing horse is a nice touch.
Release date: January 2008
Set: 8155
Pieces: 482
This set is designed to pair with the previous one, creating an elaborate multi-car pit scenario. With the same Formula 1 racer and a tractor-trailer, this set adds a larger garage section for maintenance and a pickup truck to haul tires. What’s missing in this highly playable set is Minfigures, though even if they were present, their scale is too large to fit in the cars.
Release date: January 2008
Set: 8156
Pieces: 626
When the FXX debuted in 2006 it borrowed a lot from the Enzo, but it also helped launch Ferrari’s XX Program. This initiative gives a select number of around 30 owners the chance to drive the cars in the XX line on private course days, then provide feedback to Ferrari’s technical team to enhance future cars. Sort of the most exclusive car club in the world. While this display model looks sharp, with a blend of crisp lines, organic curves, and a racing stripe, it has working scissor-style doors and a hood that opens to show off the engine.
Release date: June 2008
Set: 8157
Pieces: 997
This is the biggest Ferrari F1 car Lego released since 2006, and it’s a big 1:9 scale, 20-inch-long splash of Ferrari red with some black tires. This display-worthy model has a few features that make it worth pulling off the shelf. Along with working steering, the front end and rear wing are designed to be easily removed. While this F1 is missing a detailed engine and working suspension, the low-to-the-ground model does give you a good visual representation of how air flows around the car.
Release date: December 2008
Set: 8123
Pieces: 139
Lego returned once again to the Ferrari pit theme, but this time using the Tiny Turbos sub-theme within Racers. This is the kind of set you’d find packaged with a Happy Meal. The two F1 racers ride around a foldable racetrack, which replaces the more common rigid baseplate.
Release date: June 2009
Set: 8168
Pieces: 202
While far simpler than larger, more detailed cars, the two Minifigures drivers here do a better job of keeping with the scale of the car. Torso stickers for each identify Massa and Räikkönen, and each has a unique printed helmet. Built with basic Lego bricks, you have to remove part of the cockpit to slip the drivers in and out, which replicates the tight quarters of the real Formula 1 cars.
Release date: June 2009
Set: 8185
Pieces: 534
With another transport truck in the Ferrari line, Lego continues to pay great attention to these beefy, big rigs. Here the truck is connected to the trailer with a cabin large enough to hold two of the included five Minifigures. The trailer opens from the rear, to load and unload the racer, and also from the side to help store some accessory tool carts and diagnostic equipment. A pair of pull-out drawers house hand tools underneath, while two racks inside wait to hold the tires you pull off the car.
Release date: 2012
Sets: 30190, 30191, 30192, 30193, 30194, 30195, and 30196
Pieces: 25 to 48
In 2012, Lego, through a partnership with Shell, released a series of seven sets in plastic bags, for purchase when you stopped at a Shell gas station in Europe and parts of Asia. The line featured simple versions of street cars, like the 458 Italia, an F1 racer, a team scudeira truck, and three sets of the Shell fuel team with Minifigures. The most interesting car of the lot is the 25-piece, 250 GT Berlinetta, which features rounded headlights and a hood scoop. Like all the cars in the line, it has a pull-back motor that hurls the toy forward. Lego did not release larger Ferrari sets in 2012.
Release date: 2014
Sets: 40190, 40191, 40192, 40193, 40194, 40195
Pieces: 41 to 95
After a lull in 2013, Lego returned with more promotional Ferrari sets sold through Shell stations. Like the 2012 line, these also featured pull-back motors in a range of four Ferrari cars, a finish line, and a fuel station; the latter two included Minifigures. There was a seventh set, a Shell fuel truck, but it wasn’t affiliated with Ferrari. The most interesting car in the lineup is the 51-piece Ferrari 512 S in bright yellow. Despite only a handful of bricks, the set does a faithful job of re-creating the curvy, organic shape of the five-liter, V-12 racer, including the low-slung headlights. Lego did not release larger Ferrari sets in 2014.
Release date: August 2015
Set: 10248
Pieces: 1158
Before passing in 1988, Enzo Ferrari gave the green light to what would be his last car—the F40, celebrating his brand’s 40th anniversary. Another Ferrari to make Car and Driver’s list of notable prancing horses, the F40 is bookended by its most signature features: a nose that pitches down and the chunky rear wing. Lego designer Mike Psiaki, who works on a lot of Lego cars, gave the F40 pivoting headlights, a hood that opens forward, and operable doors. Then there’s the trunk: It opens with a prop rod, and the bumper is easily removable so you can yank out the entire engine and admire the eight pistol pieces that represent the exhaust headers.
Release date: March 2015
Set: 75899
Pieces: 164
This solid, chunky model is ready to launch across living room floors with a few new pieces introduced specifically for the LaFerrari, namely the shapely windshield. This electric hybrid Ferrari enables Bugatti Veyron–like speed and decent fuel economy. The set relies on stickers to give the front end eye-catching details and rounded elements in the rear to lend shape to the tail lights. This set is part of Lego’s Speed Champion line, which began in 2015 to focus on well-known, officially licensed cars.
Release date: March 2015
Set: 75908
Pieces: 153
After winning a pair of races at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 12 Hours of Sebring, the GT2 lives on the shelves in children’s bedrooms around the world as a bright, sticker-clad Lego racer. From the racing stripe down the center to the blacked-out wheels and rear spoiler, Lego nailed the aesthetics, though the model is a bit chunkier than the Italian original, offering more of a stock-car vibe.
Release date: March 2015
Set: 75913
Pieces: 884
If all you did was buy the Lego Ferrari scuderia trucks, you’d have enough to rival the finest Hess toy truck collection. The most elaborate truck released, the 75913 came with six Minifigures, including a few that have ear protection. The truck detaches from the trailer with a lever. And inside the trailer, two massive doors rotate up, opening to provide enough space to house the turbo-powered F14 T car, with tires on, the scooter, and all the tools. There are even details like a computer, keyboard, and mug for an espresso.
Release date: March 2017
Set: 75879
Pieces: 184
While this set includes the Ferrari SF16-H Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Räikkönen used in the 2016 Formula 1 season, the build and look are nearly identical to the F14 T from 2014, with some differences in the chunky front wing. The one Minifigure could be Vettel or Räikkönen, depending on which helmet you use. The accompanying pit wall has a lane with tools and a computer, as well as the finish line.
Release date: March 2017
Set: 75882
Pieces: 494
This set keeps with the spirit of the R&D that’s at the core of Ferrari’s XX Program. The FXX, a juiced-up Enzo, started the driver’s club in the mid-2000s, and the FXX K here, from 2014, is the latest edition to participate. The FXX K has the same V-12 as the LaFerrari (and a lot of the same parts at Lego’s version of that car), but with a higher total output of 1026 horsepower. The Lego version of the FXX is aggressive looking, especially with the rear wing. The wind tunnel has a working fan and rollers you operate by a crank, and it’s adjustable—in case you want to test the aerodynamics of other Speed Champion cars. Ferrari Minifigure staff are also standing by to test the performance of an engine and print 3D parts.
Release date: March 2018
Set: 75886
Pieces: 179
Based on the car that won the 2016 IMSA GT Daytona Class, driven by Christina Nielsen, this set includes a female Minifigure and a more appropriately scaled trophy and printed body suit on the torso. The 488 GT3 gets yellow stickers, likely for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race, and two sets of rims. The better detailing is upfront with the splitter and in the rear wing, which is adjustable.
Release date: March 2018
Set: 75889
Pieces: 841
This might be the most play-worthy Ferrari set Lego has ever designed. You get two classics: the curvaceous Ferrari 250GTO plus the wide and low-slung 312 T4, which has a pair of interchangeable rear wings. The more modern Ferrari is the 488GTE, which is similar in styling to the previous set’s GT3. After racing, roll the cars onto the garage’s lift, then move some Technic elements to lift the rig. Refuel the Ferraris at the old-school gas pump on the right, and then display them in the museum on the left—roping the GTO off, of course, so the photo-snapping Minifigure, one of seven in the set, won’t scratch the paint.
Release date: January 2019
Set: 75890
Pieces: 198
The third F40 Lego released is the Goldilocks of the range: not as complex as the 1158-piece first offered in 2017, but more satisfying to work on than the 48-piece promotional set Shell sold at gas stations in 2014. It’s a fitting tribute to one of the most iconic Ferraris ever. This set uses pretty simple bricks to achieve the look, but there are special touches like the rear window and some bricks printed with the Ferrari logo. Playability is bumped up because you can switch between the standard F40 and the Competizione version, which is more powerful, featuring a twin-turbocharged V-8—you can swap out the trunk, headlights, and rear diffuser.
Release date: January 2020
Set: 76895
Pieces: 275
Lego’s Speed Champion lineup put on a little weight on in 2020. Previously, cars in this category were six studs wide—a Lego term used to denote measurements—and grew to eight wide. The F8 Tributo is the first Ferrari to get the beefier treatment. A byproduct of that growth is that designers can add details with parts rather than stickers, as you can see with the S duct taken from Ferrari’s F1 cars and the side air intakes. The result is a car that falls between sturdy enough to play with and detailed enough to display.
Release date: January 2021
Set: 42125
Pieces: 1677
Released in early 2021, for around $200, the 488GTE was the first Ferrari to get the full Technic treatment (which means a working suspension, among other things). The 488 GTE, which won Ferrari some endurance races including a first-place finish at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2019 and 2021, comes in at well over 4000 pieces and 19 inches long, meaning assembly isn’t exactly child’s play. With about 60 stickers, the set is more than just building, though there is plenty of that with a V-8 engine and its pistons, which connects to the rear axle through a differential. The doors open to reveal a working steering wheel and an accurately detailed interior inside a robust, solid display-worthy model.
Release date: March 2022
Set: 76906
Pieces: 291
This 6.5-inch-long throwback to a 1970 Ferrari 512M, a lower, more powerful version of the 512 S, marks the beginning of when race-car designers started considering aerodynamics. This model nails the sloping nose with headlights, the cockpit and canopy, and the rear spoiler. Diehard Lego fans—especially those who dislike stickers—should appreciate that the designer added more printed bricks with the Ferrari logo than are actually required in the model, to increase usability in other builds.
Release date: June 2022
Set: 42143
Pieces: 3778
Only the second Lego Technic Ferrari, this is the biggest and most expensive one to date. Released in June 2022 for $450, the 23-inch long, 1:8 scale model was timed to coincide with the debut of the real car. Over the pandemic, Ferrari’s designers in Italy were finishing the car as Lego’s team in Denmark kept pace with last-minute changes. The guts of the car come from the 330 P4 that Ferrari ran out to win the 1967 Daytona. Part of Lego’s Ultimate Car Concept, the Ferrari Daytona SP3 joins other large-scale Technic builds like the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37, Bugatti Chiron, and Porsche 911 GT3 RS. The instruction booklet walks you through the assembling the engine and crankcase, which is a rewarding, technical aspect of the build. Turning the car over reveals the working eight-speed transmission controlled by paddle shifters inside the cabin.
Release date: March 2023
Set: 76914
Pieces: 261
The first Lego Ferrari of 2023 might be the last of a dying breed. The 2022 812 Competizione feels like it might be the final V-12 that prances without the aid of a battery and electric motor. The Lego version is smoother than most Speed Champion models with only a handful of studs showing. Stickers help add racing details, but bricks detail the aggressive front end and excellent rear exhaust of this six-inch-long model.
