LEGO Technic 42231 Fast and Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T model with exposed V8 engine, shown with retail box

LEGO’s 1,516-Piece Fast & Furious Charger Is Built for the Shelf

LEGO's 1,516-piece Technic Fast & Furious Dodge Charger R/T packs a V8, working steering, and NOS bottles. $159.99 of shelf-worthy muscle.

Dom Toretto’s Charger, minus the quarter-mile.

LEGO Technic’s take on the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T from Fast & Furious is a 1,516-piece build aimed squarely at adults, and it does not skimp on the mechanical theater. The V8 gets a chain-driven compressor, the rear-wheel drive runs through a cardan shaft with a differential, and the steering works off a knob on the back. Independent suspension front and rear, two NOS bottles, and a fire extinguisher round out the details.

At $159.99, it sits in that sweet spot where the build is the evening entertainment and the finished car earns permanent shelf space. The LEGO Builder app even has a Build Together mode if you want to split the job across a couple of devices.

I have covered plenty of LEGO sets over the years, and the movie-car ones always hit different. This is the definitive desktop Charger.
