I finished the build yesterday and want to give a little review.
1.) Optic: please do yourself a favour...DONT USE THE STICKER. First of all, i hate sticker on sets and second of all, this car looks so much better without the sticker. Maybe you can use the one sticker for the display but the rest...dont use it. 4.5/5
2.) The build: this build was quite challenging. Its a really big set with 4449 parts. You really need to be focused when you build it. Instruction are clear and good but this thing is massiv. But the 4 star rating is mostly because of the build...as cool and nice the car is looking, ther are many steps which are frustrating during the build, some steps are in an idiotic order. For example...as i said...this thing is huge...so you have one step where you have to turn it upside down (even if you can finish the step without turning over) the next step you have to put it back on top and the step after you have to turn it again upside down. And some parts are quite unstable connected so if you turn it a hu dred times the parts will fall of over and over. 4/5
3.) Price: i got this thing for about 180€ incl. Rc. Just try to find a lego set for this price and see what you get. Enough said... 4.5/5
4.) Quality: most parts fit perfect, some part are a little loose when you are connecting them, colours are great and look the same at every part. You got extra black pins for better looking. I just tested the function without wheels, cause i read that there are joints which break cause of the weight of this set. 4.5/5
Summary: great set, big set, good price, perfect display set. Again a set which shows how bad lego is.
My thumbs are sore but very happy with the result. Great packaging and good instructions in my opinion. Only one issue is a part on the axle broke and now the car won't run because a single wheel cannot do it. Hopefully I can get a replacement soon.
Its arrived really fast, the car look amazing .
The building is challenging and fun .
So recommend
Overall, this is a good set.
However, there are some bad things happened to me.
First of all, the controller was dead already and they sent me the new one so that is fine. After this I had a part which is not full and it seems to be melted.
Secondly, the absorbers don’t work well, the car is heavy but the absorbers dont have enough strength to balance the car. So sad.
Had a lot of fun building this set, it was a nice challenge. Door mechanism and battery removal is also really nice. Car looks insanely good and cada did a good job with the bricks quality. Will be buying every 1/8 scale car this company releases :)
It’s a lot for me.
Really good build quality, stunning design, no missing parts. Highly recommend this beautiful apollo!
Only downside was that cable management was not displayed clearly in manual, I had to look at a lot of incoming steps to make sure I will put it correctly.

The car is awesome. But the only problem was that the package arrived to me SOAKING WET!!! Luckily that the pieces are in individual sealed plastic bags, and were ok (especially the electrical parts and the instruction books). I know it is not your fault, it's the transporters. But i just wanted to let you know.
How fast can the car go?
