Lego's replica of the $3 million Bugatti Chiron is smaller, cheaper
Lego's Bugatti Chiron car is one-eighth the size of the ultra-luxurious sports car, but it's 8,565 times cheaper.
The nearly $3 million baby blue speed machine got the Lego treatment with a replica version made up of 3,599 pieces. While the real thing has a top speed of 261 mph, the Lego replica doesn't exactly have that same 1,500-horsepower capability that set records last year.

Beneath the hood each car has a unique serial number.

You can insert a key to switch the vehicle to top speed position. It's almost like sitting in the cockpit of one of the most expensive vehicles on the market.

The Lego Technic Bugatti car model is on sale at Lego stores and on the Lego website. The car itself is much more difficult to track down.
